Budget Turbo Yukon XL "Uncle Rob" Gets TiAL Wastegate & BOV Installed! (Single Turbo Kit Fab Tips)

What happens here

After tacking the BOV flange, the presenter realizes a mistake in the flange's orientation. To correct this, he uses a reciprocating saw (Sawzall) to cut off the mistakenly welded flange from the crossover pipe. This requires re-doing the previous steps of modification, cutting, and deburring for a second attempt.

Goal: Rectify a mistake in flange orientation by re-cutting the weld.

Tools and materials

  • Crossover Pipe — The component requiring correction
  • Reciprocating Saw — Cutting off the incorrectly welded flange
  • Safety Glasses — Eye protection

man i forgot when i was trimming this i had a rogue uh carbide big over and it messed that up and i put that on the top where everyone can see it so that's not cool but i'm probably gonna powder coat or paint these pipes anyway like wrinkle black or something really boring and inconspicuous to mess the rest of it so we're just gonna pretend that's not there it'll be our secret ask that question again because it's useful for people who may be watching this so why don't you like weld it all the way around because if it's in the wrong spot then i can easily move it before i weld the whole thing and then it has in the wrong place and i'm like damn it i can't move it because it's all the way welded if we need to move it here we can just grind those little tacks off break it and adjust it that way so it's like a it's like a test fit makes sense yeah see did you just learn something trying to gauge the average knowledge level of people watching this just if if you learn something there or at any point during this uh let me know in the comments what that was i want to know what you're learning and how you learned it and how you would like to learn things so i can explain more or explain less pretty much i keep asking questions they are good
