Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the turbo outlet on all turbos 3"? How would a 3.5" downpipe work?

actually the smallest area inside the exhaust housing is 3.5", the outer edge is 3.75"
most 3" downpipes are 3" pipe
the flange ID is not always 3" depending on the manufacturer

Hey Ron, is there anyway to get those side mirror turn signals in like a clear or lightly smoked? Not too keen on the full up tinted ones

Those 15x8 VMS wheels can be run front and rear right?

Why did you stop making them if you don't mind me asking? They seemed popular.
If you make another batch I'll likely pick one up too. It was on my to do list
no reason really
I can make another batch no problem

Chromoly is better than steel. Pierce equals chromoly.
I have 2 pierce braces they are not flimsy whatsoever.
But hey whatever makes you happy. And this is nothing against Ron I have his motor mount and was the first one to ever make a video about it. I just prefer chromoly over steel.

My sister-in-law's husband is a bike loveing fanatic his bike frame is several thousand dollars. You can pick it up with one finger. Do you think it's stronger than a heavy steel frame bike yeah it is.

It's very thin, I can move it with my hand. And by the way, chromoly is steel, and for the bottom traction bar thick mild steel is fine. Thicker chromoly steel would be good, but not a place I'm trying to save weight. I have the Pierce upper and that's paper thin also, but I'm not interested adding weight there... please PM if you want top discuss and argue rather than divert Ron's thread please. :)

If Ron has a problem with me discussing an opinion he can message me about it. I've given him about 5,000 views advertising products I bought from him and he is mentioned in the videos.
Many different types of steel.
And you can have a good night.

I want to add I plan on doing a video of basically every mod I do, so I can help people visualize the part and they can see it from all angles.

there are many choices available
we have DNA parts that are also chromoly
our first batch of bars were mild steel, maybe we will look at different materials for the next round, not sure

There are thick wall oval aluminum braces in the UK I'm trying to get a hold of as well
Not everyone has to agree which is better/best, it's really fine.
We've sold 250+ of our braces so far, the miniscule amount of complaints or issues reported I'd say it's been a home run
