band clamp kits for gt turbos are £120 complete on there own
so £120 for a down pipe is cheap
it cost me over £600 to make my exhaust in parts alown not including my labour which was around 30 hrs

i'm a welder, and have made quite a few down pipes and zorsts.
And if i could get a st/st down pipe ready to fit for £150 i wouldn't bother doing it myself, (and that would cost me time and meterials at cost's only)
Here's my xr2tt down pipe i made 2 weeks ago. all from 2.5" 316 st/st, all tig welded. 2wd cossie turbo.

Got the new bit for £25 of the bay from some metal dude, looks really good workmanship tbh, although getting the angle right might be tricky..
heres what happened 1st time
It ripped when I removed it from the car, I was giving it some love

To stop it cracking
You need a flexi joint, and/ or at least a spring loaded fire ring joint from down pipe to zorst.

Your got a fair point, but i've now got a proper st/st clamp on there.
But
Its a St/St clip that i had at the time, And does it up enough to seal and stop it moving, with out damageing the pipe in any way.
