The 45 with a 20" leg was NICE! Comes off the throttle body with plenty of length to cut wherever I wanted. Same with the 3" 45's I used for my air filter turbo intake :) Set it up like a stock greddy kit.

HOLY ---- :o, 137.99???? are you on crack? they had better be some damn nice bends ::)

Re:Where To Find Mandrel Bends?
 

On crack? Thats a good price for all that I bought. If you notice I went with 2.5" which is a little more expensive, the 45 with a 20" leg bumped the price up a litle more and of course you really don't need 2 3" 45's. Just look at the price PER PIECE. Very good prices and yes, the bends are very nice :) This may be HMT but not everyone here has to be straight up ghetto fabbing their ---- cutting every single corner possible.

Re:Where To Find Mandrel Bends?
 

what material should it be. i have been looking and im not to sure. i have found stainless, mild steel, and aluminum. i am thinking aluminum, but im not to sure.

Re:Where To Find Mandrel Bends?
 

i was just saying that it's alot of money to do charge pipes. my last kit i picked up 3 u bends and it was plenty.

Re:Where To Find Mandrel Bends?
 

I will be redoing all of my piping in aluminum. Now that i know my neighbor welds alum. He welded brackets on my front mount for 5 bucks! If I would have known this I'd go with aluminum if you have a connection or a reputable welder at a decent price. Keep in mind steel charge pipes weigh up to 20+lbs total. Mild is easier to weld, stainless wont rust and aluminized steel will work fine to. I think its personal prference. I got mild steel as I live in FL and will be painting the pipes anyways.
