Default mandrel or pressure bent?

im struggling to get hold of some mandrel bends but my local exhaust shop says that they can do me some normal pressure bends. is there a great difference in the performance between the two?

i know that obviously the air flow is gonna be better with the mandrel bent tubes but WILL IT WORK? with the normal pressure bends?

try a different shop, mandrel bends are more the common enough. or buy bulk tubing and do it yourself.
