Advice welders
I have a Magnaflow Ti catback and I wanna have the neckdown at the cat flange corrected...my question concerns welding steel tubing to titanium tubing? Is it any different than welding steel to steel? Sorry for the dumb question.

No... I work at a power plant welding... and you have to weld titanium/steel/iron just about every kind of metal to every other kind of metal... trust me it can be done it just takes alot of skill

It will look like Fido's ***. Ideally to weld Ti it should be to another piece of Ti and should be in an inert atmosphere.
I have never seen anyone weld Ti to steel. I'm not saying it can't be done but, I would try to avoid if at all possible.

Do a quick google search and you will see your answer.
As far as the Shuttle, Ti is structural and extremely light weight. Not used as a thermal protection system as that is the function of the carbon-carbon and tiles.
