Ryan,

When mine broke I used my MIG welder with regular wire.
I have had to repair the same piece on mine twice since I
installed the system eight years ago.  My most recent repair
(with standard MIG wire) has lasted at least as long as
the original weld in the same spot.

HTH,

I just broke a weld on my (new) stainless steel exhaust. It is the little 3"
piece which connects the two out pipes about 6" in front of the end tips.

Can I use a MIG welder? Is the wire stainless steel?

Is this a pain in the butt or what?
