Default guys that are building there own kits, please read

We now sell mandrel bends ranging from 1"-4" in mild steel. Along with that we also have flanges, v-band clamps, basically all building material. We also carry a wide range of wastegates, bov, boost controllers, and Precision turbos, all at very competitive prices. We've been getting alot of calls lately about materials so I thought I might spread the word a bit

Can you add the bean lip on the ends of the mandrel bend tubes? Also, can you merge two 45 degree bent tube into a single y type one?

I've never bought any aluminum bends. I'll check to see if they carry those

All these little pieces probably will not be on the site. This is a type of deal where you have to call and let me know what you need

Yes, I can merge 2 45*angles into one pipe. Just did that the other day to one of our cars

How much would that cost for the two pieces, the fab work, and beans welded?

Ahh, from what i've seen here on the board, none of our sponsors offer aluminum tubing for sale or list it on their websites. If they do I missed it. GZM isn't sure if they can get it or not.

So if it isn't a service or part offered by one of our sponsors, I can list the link as a helpful source of info to my fellow members....
