Exhaust Jig Ideas?

Post by TryingToTurbo »

Hey all,

I am working on an exhaust for my BRZ which has a dual exit exhaust. Intermediate exhaust components like manifolds, downpipes, cats, etc can all be jigged easy by fixing a flange on either end and bolting up to that. But, how do you jig a catback, particularly the tips? I can't seem to come up with a good, repeatable solution. Does anyone have suggestions?

how bout just a little podium, like a cut pipe for them to pocket into, then hold down with a simple strap/clamp.
