Mandrel Bender?
I'm getting ready to install my new Holset and debating whether I weld up some air-to-air pipes or find a place that can do the mandrel bending of the 3" or 4" pipes. Anyone know of any locations? It appears that not many (if any) shops have them. Only down fall is that I'd have to haul the truck to the shop.

most places(like my former shop) can't afford mandrel benders, they're freakin EXPENSIVE. we just used a hydraulic bender, slight restriction in the pipe but still flows better than stock.

I'd rather not use a regular hydraulic pipe bender. I'm not sure if it would hurt performance, but would definitely look tacky.
