I have heard of it for fueltanks but does it work on exhaust too, pretty tough and no cap at the ends
RE: Titanium Exhaust repair - DAVE01 - 08-01-2011
can work but sometimes it splits the tube, the ice freezes at the ends first
RE: Titanium Exhaust repair - [UNIT] - 08-01-2011
Defiantly don't cap the end it will split it longitudinally.
Be careful

never seen dry ice used,just normally fill with water and put in to a freezer.Racing tape will hold the water in until it starts to freeze.
It still can split the pipe though.
