Hi all
Hope this is the correct forum area!
I Have been thinking about building up some custom intercooler housing & piping on two of my vehicles. Now I'd like a bid of advice as to how to go about it!
My welding equipment at the moment consists of am SIP 150 ( )with the transformer mod.
Should I...
A. Convert my mig to run aluminium, which I've heard can suffer problems with not being air tight - bearing in mind there will be up to 2 bars of pressure going through the pipe work
B. Hire a 200A TIG for the week from my local hire place @ £65 + £38.99 for the Argon
C. Buy an oxy/acetylene set which I could then also use for other jobs (Gas hammering, body soldering, cutting, heating rusty bits etc) plus I've always kind of wanted to learn the art of.
What would you guys recommend?
The materieal is likey to be 58mm tube with a 3mm wall.
Many thanks
Al
