I have found a local shop that does a compressed bend?? Is this the same as a wrinkle bend?? Will I really need a mandrel bend with limited engine mods.?? I only have a CAI and will be getting a tuner. Will I see that much of a difference in these bends??

 

Not likely - but Mandrel if yer picky, all else if yer not.

 

unless you plan on going all out as in headers true duals tune etc it should be fine. Stock bends are crush bent

 

as long as you're not buying a really small diameter....dual 2.5" is good with standard bending methods and will flow fine.

 

Well my plan was true duals. highflow cats some type of pack/bullet mufflers. I havent got any real plans for headers at the moment.. but maybe someday. and will be getting a tune.. I am just wondering if I should do it once and do it right type of deal or limp it along till a later date.

 

I have an all mandrel bent system and I am not totally convinced it is that much better than a standard press bent system, tbh.

I like the stianless steel, but seeing as that I live in CA, I porbably should've just gotten the normal steel. lol

 

Mandrel bent really isn't doing much for you on the street. A few numbers on the dyno though.
