"down piping"
 
any ever see that "bendable" piping at pepboys,autozone,kragen.....

it has ruffles and stuff to make it pretty easy to bend?
if anyone knows what i'm talking about, do you think those little ruffles will affect the flow in my DP if i use that?

I would guess if you use that flexable crap at 2.5 inch would be like having 1.5 inch because of the turbulance.

i know turbulance would affect the flow, but do you really think it will make that big of a difference?..
2.5 to 1.5?

I know someone that used some of that crap and it leaked like hell and fell apart really quick..it LOVES to rust becuase the moving around of all the little flexy joints rubs all of the aluminization off of the pipe...
