Mandrel bending

This is when a mandrel is placed inside the piping so as the metal is shaped it does not kink like press bending. It gives a much more even flow for the exhaust gasses to escape then inside a press bend. It will cost around twice as much per bend as the machine costs twice as much.
Dont go bigger than 2inch for your application either as we want performance not noise. Also dont stimp on a quality muffler and get a straight through kind with plenty of packing. Brands are brands spend $200+ and you cant go wrong.:flash:
