Making a down pipe?

[scfdiesel]

I'm needing a down pipe to fit the 3" outlet housing on the ATS turbo, I think its a slip fit. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this? The down pipe is no longer available from ATS. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

do you have the old pipe? I had an exhaust shop copy one. you might be able to use a down pipe from a powerstroke and cut off the 90 and mod it to fit, the powerstroke pipes are 3"

A powerstroke downpipe can easily be modified to fit. Not sure about how you are attaching it to the outlet elbow though. The factory setup uses a v-band, and I think the ATS setup uses a bigger v-band.

Oops thanks Towcat, guess my memory isn't as good as I thought. I changed it to a ball flange so that it would be easier to install and remove.
