why would you be welding cast to steel? let me guess your welding a turbo flange to a stock header?

o, that makes a lot more sense.yea i figured i got the manifold for 100 bucks, and say it cost another 100 to get a wastegate flange welded to it, itll still be cheaper than paying 400 plus for a custom manifold. one day i will get a nice maniflold but right now this will work lol

yea, that works. be prepared for it to crack though. cast manifolds like to do that.

i feel ya on that, im in the same boat. only difference is my race season starts like....3 months earlier than it does there.

cast iron only crack because it is 20 yrs old and has had hundreds and hundreds of heat cycles.
and SS crack because people can't weld for shit. haha
oh and i don't think a stock manifold will make alot of power, unless you have some way of making it flow, without being a huge restriction. and cuasing massive back pressure.?

it should be fine, and your right there is a guy that is using a 20 year old cast manifold and running 12's weekly during racing season. so im not really worried.
