First of all, I am neither in the mood for criticism or pointless jibba jabba  
on this setup. I’ve been kinda kicked around by people who will say  
they will do this and that at this time and I am just seriously upset and  
frustrated with how long this is taking to get this done.

Friend of my dad did the downpipe but due some circumstances, he is  
unable to finish this (it’s neither dad or his friend’s fault).

I am merely looking for someone who can help me weld a tube to a flange  
and then the tube to the downpipe. This tube basically connects the  
wastegate exit to the downpipe.

I have all the parts, and everything is pretty much positioned. I just need  
the items welded. Job should take no more then an 1/2 hour tops.

**I am willing to pay, as well as drive to your house or shop.**

I need this done ASAP. This weekend preferred (anytime).  
Weekdays I’m limited to after 7pm (since I work all day).

Well i was hoping someone locally would do it at their house or their own  
shop on the weekend without asking for appointment and stuff (which  
assume from J&R).

In anycase I think i have someone who will be doing it. Will let ya know tomorow. :wiggle:

nawh you dont need an appointment… if you can get a hold of him then he should be able to do it np… pass by the shop and knock on the back door. no one ever in the office.
