Corrected Davinchi Down Pipe
#1
Got this back from Justin at DaVinchi today. It looks good to me. They have added a flange, an o2 bung and some flex tube for the dump tube. Here are some from before. Originally there was no flange on the end. It was flared and you can see where I tried to block sand it to get it flat. (Yea great, nice try) As you can imagine it wouldn't seal for ****. Dee was so gracious to notice the obnoxious exhaust leak it had when i limped it up to him the first time.
I know your saying "who gives a **** it's only a down pipe" but i figure the forum has been slow and why not share something. Your comments are welcome.

Here is the nasty scar I got from trying to get the V band on tight enough to seal it the first time. Wrench slipped and I rammed the top of my hand into the under side of the filler cap. Ouch. I could see a porkchop inside my hand.

man you need to take fresh impact pictures of cuts...not a week of healing scare!
BTW why two bung? I have the Innovate to help tune. Is this so the OE O2 can stay in place while tunning. I need to make my DP.

That scar is from this past summer when i first got the kit. It's healed up pretty good now. One bung for a wideband, and the other for the o2. Maybe pointless but it's there none the less.

Looks like some back woods **** but I guess you get what you pay for. I personally would have sent the whole kit back. At least they attempted to fix it. That is all you can really ask for.
Hope it seals this time.
