Crush bending reduces the diameter of the pipe thus restricting the flow. The pipes *should* be mandrel bent but, most exhaust shops do not have a mandrel bender though.

if you like the exhaust and think it sounds good i guess you accomplished what you were trying to do. Just seems like you are ricing the car out with these cheapy mods.

crush bends FTL.
would have been just as cheap to procure some mandrel U bends to give to the shop to fab into the exhaust, without losing the flow.
crush bends are crap. I would NEVER put any crush bent pile of crap on my 350z.

I can guarantee you it doesn't.........so I wouldn't speak unless you have dyno proof showing there are no differences, because there most definitely are.

People need to stop hating on the wheels, the thread is not about that. If he makes a post about "what do you guys think about my wheels" then feel free to post there what you really think.

Go look at any real performance car, bend under it and see if it has crush bends. Hell, even our STOCK exhaust was mandrel bent.
