Need welder for turbo & exhaust piping in ATL?

I got a good friend who has a TIG welding machine and a shop. He can do custom exhaust work and turbo piping. He is also going to help me weld my 3.5" turbo piping on the intake side for my car which is going to be a completely custom kit. He also has a friend that works at an exhaust shop who has done complete custom exhaust setups. He already welded some things for me. I might go by the shop tomorrow and I'll post pics.
So if anyone in the ATL area needs custom work for the intake or exhaust side for a FI car PM me.

Anybody looking to make a custom turbo kit can buy aluminum piping from here where I bought mine from and have the shop cut it to size and weld it.

Went by today and took some pics. The shop is messy since they just moved. The welding machine is a MIG welding machine not TIG, my mistake on that. They already have the gas and spool gun to weld aluminum.

See how much he'd charge to install a set of shorty headers on my coupe.

I'll call him and ask in a min. You should be able to do that yourself. I have the tools you need and I can even help you if you want all for free. The only thing I don't have is a hydraulic jack to lift the car up but I have jack stands. I use a scissor jack to work on mine but it's a PITA.

He said $200.

I'd love to do this myself, but just seems a like a bit much. You aren't the first to offer me help so I make go ahead and make this happen. Although that's a great price he's offering. Where's he located?

He is in downtown Lawrenceville.
120 paper mill rd suite C Lawrenceville GA 30045

I could drive there with you if you want on Saturday. They are doing road construction there and the street they are on has no street sign.

Went by the shop a few days ago and took some new pics. I am also in the process right now of making a website for the shop and that should be up in 2 weeks or so.

Their number is on this pic for everyone else that might be interested. Just call and mention my name Alex so they know I sent you. Their number is 678-371-6185 like the pic.



This is Marvin doing some exhaust work changing a catalytic converter.

The shop moved to a new location today that has more room. The shop also does collision work now and painting. I'll have the address updated on the website soon.
Old location below.


New location here which only 2 blocks down the street.
