Default Bent turbo intake piping

Well Ran into some clearance issues with the TTi, possibly due to the Warhawk.

Had to hammer a few intake pipes to get them to fit, and im now worrying about negative effects on performance.

How bad is this? The bends arent SOO bad, but I was hoping not to get there.

I know you'd have to see them to guess, but any ideas?

Definitely need to post pics to get an idea of how extensive the 'massaging' was.
