The idea behind this kit is really nice and all, but why are you guys rushing this build? Then you could have then used a high frequency TIG welder. Otherwise, an A for effort and engineering. Good Luck.
. we had been planning making this setup for a while but very suddenly decided to start the project because last weekend, the time was just right.

So whats this kit cost, i forget who makes the one for us, but its rediciously priced for a SC FMIC
$60 for welding supplies

3 days of non-stop work
once again, all the credit for the design and creation of the kit go to SoCalIsMyLife

not bad on materials pricing, think yall would do it again for the right price? UR is like 1k for the kit and i think thats outrageous being that other FMIC kits for most turbos dont go near that much

electrode doesn't get contaminated every time i need to scratch start. also good welders have remote pedal controls so I can continuously vary the amperage being used while I'm welding.
