I think the fact that you let everyone know that you failed multiple times is very important for those first starting out. Too many people get discouraged after watching other videos that make it seem easy and as if they get the perfect product every time or after the first try. So thanks for being completely transparent about that.

I worked CF composites at Koenigsegg, and the strategy that ended up working was kind of close to how we worked. The difference is that we never use sleeves for anything, but instead regular 240gr weave, but pre-preg. The reason your weave ended up wavy and inconsistent is because your weave wasn't cut out for the dimensions of the pipe. My suggestion is to buy 240gr pre-preg CF weaves. You can store rolls of them pretty much indefinitely in a freezer. Take your CAD drawings of your molds, "unfold" them onto a 2D plane, and cut the shapes into your CF weave + like 1cm in each direction. Then just laminate the mold with your CF weave, and use a box cutter to just cut off the excess along the edge of the mold. The pre-preg makes your CF weave kind of stiff, so it's easy to cut through it without the weave bunching up. Apply 2 more layers but leave the overlap on one of the molds; when you connect the two molds, take the overlap and make that the connection point to the CF on the opposite mold. And then just connect the two molds the same way you did, with the vacuum tube running down the middle, the breather, and all that. With the pre-preg you also won't need to do any treatment, like polishing etc. It all comes out looking good enough to be inside an engine bay. All you gotta do is cut off those excess strands of epoxy that seeps out the cracks of the mold with a box cutter.

I would recommend watching a couple videos on how CF bike frames are made. Typically they use a bladder to blow up the inside of the tube, then vacuum the outside. And, as others have said, they use precut pieces of prepreg. It's fun to do it your way sometimes, but when you want the job done, check what others in the industry are doing. Did you do any pressure testing on the pipes? What about the mounting tabs?

You could have wetted the carbon, wetted the inside of the mold, clamped the molds and then inflated internal bags, no need for vacuum bag on outside. Sometimes it's easier this way. Props for showing the process and failures. Nice work.

i love the fact that you showed you failed for months! You're the reason i started making carbon parts for my car and trying different ways of doing it as well. Keep up the amazing work

Glad you got it figured out, but yeah, these are typically done with build-up layers. The outside layer adjacent to the mold face is the 'pretty' layer and done as one piece cut to shape, then subsequent layers reinforced for strength flange into the other half (the overlap) while the 2nd half fits inside the first at the seam. Too many people get stuck on the epoxy thinking that it's the component that gives a part strength, when its primary job is to essentially lock the carbon in place for shape. There's a lot of tricks you can use for other considerations specific for its working environment that also could also enable its use for downpipes, but there isn't an 'off the shelf' resin specifically for that due to epoxy's low heat tolerance. I specialize in extreme heat use and it took me several years to formulate one that can withstand exceptionally high heat (currently exploring in the 5600*F and above neighborhood) but in that usage, you most certainly won't have a 'show level' esthetic part anymore. In the future, I would print your parts as you intend them to look and function, then build your molds in fiberglass with generous flanges, use your tool coat for the inside and progressively sand up to 2000 grit for a perfect surface finish. Prepreg isn't strictly necessary for one-offs, but if you were to be doing this in a production use, you will end up with a stronger part for optimum carbon/resin ratio and less overall waste. But then again, you'd also need all the support equipment for pre-preg and not be doing this on the internet.😁

Massive level of effort and learning for 2 parts. Really glad you showed the time and effort it takes to make this sort of stuff (which is why they are SOOOO expensive to buy.) Great to also see that you persisted and didnt give up.

I started doing carbon fiber work, and I have two words for you: wet sand. Even at 120 grit it works super well! Zero dust, and the sandpaper lasts way longer.

FIRST is a PRE-FILTER (G1-G4 class), SECOND is a BAG FILTER (M5-M6, F7-F9 class) and at the end you can add an absolute Filter or HEPA. Me, I don't use HEPA filter, because it reduces the performance of the vacuum motor. I just frequently wash and clean the filters.

Using internal bladders is a common technique when molding hollow parts. When the part is open on bother ends, you can use an inner vacuum bag and an outer vacuum bad and join them together to vacuum bag the whole part. Two days ago, the channel *Matthieu Libeert* made a tutorial about making carbon fiber tubes. One of the methods used a mold which included the above described technique for vacuum bagging the part.

Hey amazing video, i was wondering instead of vaccum pressuring the moulds, would it been possible if you had tightly secured the two halfs of the mould and filled air in those transparent pipes that you filled inside the carbon fiber pipes?

Way to keep at it! If you want sleeves to inflate inside a bag you have to run the ends outside of the bag and remove the end. For the vacuum to expand the poly sleeve it needs atmosphere on the outside. By running the poly sleeve outside the vacuum bag you get atmosphere inside the sleeves working against the vacuum on the inside of the bag. You will get expansion to the mold or the poly sleeve will burst if too small a diameter. (Can't run sleeve outside the mold inside the bag) Has to pass through the outside bag at the mouth of the mold. otherwise the exposed part will pop.

Just gently inflating (e.g. with the mouth) the inner tube and seal it would be enough. If a vacuum cleaner is not strong enough to pop the plastic of the sleeve, it will also not pop inside the vacuum bag. 20% vacuum is enough, and it is +/- what a vacuum cleaner produces

Ive never worked with any carbon fiber but would it not be a good idea to either partially or fully harder the two halfves and then wrap another carbon sleave around the 2 halves to then cure fully ? I just think that since it would give at lease one consistent layer all the way around ?

I have build intake runners myself and I know your pain. I have made two different sets for an isuzu and a vw pickup truck. I enden up using the method you employed as well - laying up both sides and then pressing them together with a fiber buttjoint. The idea of using a sleeve is appealing and there probably is a way to get it to produce good results. I have however, not found it yet. The obvious downside to this method is that there is a defined breaking edge as no fibers go all the way around the part. I have developed a solution to this issue, but I haven't used it yet so I can't tell you if it works.

After you soak your carbon in resin place it between 2 peace’s of plastic and use a dough roller to squeeze out the excess resin. DYI prepreg. It also works great with a lay up. Place all the wetted bull material between clear plastic. Roll the excess out. Place template on top and out line with a sharpie. Cut through it all with a knife. Peal one side and apply.
