Default Places to buy metal for fab work.

Im getting ready to fabricate my downpipe but I am not sure of where I can buy some supplies from. Im exchanging my welder tomarrow since my feeder motor burned out on me and its still under warranty.

I know of Coltrane here in town but from my experiences with them they dont sell metal. However I could be wrong.

Ya I would like to get some 2.5" pipe, carbon or mild steel. Which ever is best for a downipe and not rediculously exspensive. I would assume carbon steel is best though.

I also need to make intercooler piping and fab up some coolant and oil lines for my turbo. 1x Standard 2.5" two bolt flange & DSM T25 to O2 4 bolt flange..

Other than that thats it.

Well, we will have your mandrel bends in ss or aluminized, and your exhaust flanges. The turbo flange we do not carry.
