Input on mandrel bent group buy
 

Decided to start a new post for this one. I need to get some imput from you guys on what you want in the mandrel group buy, 2" or 2 1/2", steel or stainless, do you want hose with that or are you going to get your own, silicone or nitril, clamps? Jeff what do you think, you have done enough turbo setups to know what is needed. Give me your input and I will give everyone a price and go from there.

From my view i think you should have it for the 2.5'' pipe because thats what your FMIC's are and i would like it to be the same. Whats the price difference to upgrade to stainless? Would the mild steel rust? I think you should include silicon hose and clamps so it can be a whole DIY kit. Just my $0.02. Also i have in the past bought cheap hose clamps that rust or break would these ones be stainless of plated? Sorry i asked more questions then i input but i am interested in this group by. Thanks.

Silicone is pretty and tough but nitril hose is just as tough but cheaper. The same goes for the stainless mandrels just as good as steel but they cost more. The hose clamps would be the high pressure stainless units for sure, no sense cheaping out there.You would have to paint the steel so it wouldn't rust. The point is I need to know what people want good looks or cheap price? The quality will be the same on both just a difference in price.

My vote is for inexpensive quality. im not worried about the shinyness of my charge pipes. the polish factor on my engine isnt going to get me more -----. thats my opinion.

you could just assemble a kit for both types... if it were cost benificial that is.

Come on, is no one interested in this.

Re:Input on mandrel bent group buy
 

im interested... but i just spent almost ALL of my money on school tuition and books. later on i would probably buy if there was a group buy.

Re:Input on mandrel bent group buy
 

im inthe same boat as you
im cool with mild steel. i can sand and paint it my self right?
my question is what is the price going to be?

i vote mild steel
2''-2 1/4'' diameter
and silicone (black or blue)

i'm down depending on pricing ;), i think 2.5 is a good size
