Default Exhaust piping performance loss w/ standard bends?

I'm boosting my y8 with a 14b turbo. No muffler shops in town have mandrel bends. Would it be ok to do 3" piping with standard bends? Or is that not good for air flow? thanks.

Forget about the flow. If ou can cut and weld you can just do some "whitey bends". Otherwise just order up some piping online.

how about just order a few 90 degree bends and let them use their 180 degree pipes.
