Ok so I might be putting way to much thought into this, but here it is...
You could make the welds stronger on some then on others to have it fire at different times. Or, you could just take it apart and weld some more on there.
I still can not believe someone did this.

I haven't even the words...


This is almost as bad as the guy who wanted to hone out his intake tract, so he dumped a bag of sand into his revving engine, figuring it would all just shoot out the back and leave him with a nice shiny intake plenum..

That's right up there with shrinking the size of the intake runners of your head with JB Weld.

That is cooler than just the Calipers. I think we should all do this. When you just do the Calipers you just get a little red, but with this mod you get so much more bang for your buck.
