Dent in Header???

I recently ordered a package with flowtech long tube headers and y pipe. I noticed there was a small dent in one of the headers and two small dents in the y pipe. I was wondering if that ill affect any performance?..I dont want to take it back if it wont affect anything...

Will not cause a problem. I have had mine for 6 months now and no problems. I am very happy with my times after the headers.

I believe the dents on the Flowtechs are there to help with clearance.

Edit: They all come dented, it's not something you really need to worry about and won't affect performance.

Yeah that dent isnt big enough to hurt anything. The y pipe is much better than the pacesetter.
