Default 2.5 TD exhaust non-mandrel

MY local exhause shop doesn't have a mandrel bender; I have thought about buying a kit but it's cheaper to just have the shop fab the exhaust, but they don't have a mandrel bender..would not having mandrel bends really make that much of a difference?

Every little bit helps. Just buy the bends online from Summit or other websites and bring them to your muffler guy. Or better yet, buy yourself a small welder and build your own exhaust and get it done exactly the way you want it.

I would just get your shop to fab your system.. It's not gonna make that big of a
difference. I have crush bent 2.5 TD's on my car. I ,personally,would rather have straight pipes bent than a bunch of pre-bent pipes welded together.
