a mate's got a starlet turbo, and its havein a problem of cracking the after market ss zorst.
so i'm gonna weld a piece of flexi between down pipe and exhaust. as there's nothing already fitted.
i dont wont a conpensator joint (like in Burtons) i need a weldable piece of flexi.
Cheers for any help.

Cheers lads
Thats the kiddie, wot sort of money for a 63mm X 100mm flexi joint like that?
i had a spring bolt joint on my tt,
but with extreme amount of engine movement (ie big power or bad design engine/gearbox mounts) i wouldn't say there up to the job, as on my xr2tt with 180-200 bhp, vibratecnic mounts and spring joint, it still cracked twice, and after i fitted a flexi never had a problem.
