Better Flow = Increased Performance, I used to work at this shop part time
for 3 years, it was a blast learning about different grades of pipe, mufflers,
and tips, how long they last, how fast they rust, the funny part is when you
start pricing all of the components of this kit from others like Jeg's or Summit,
the x-pipe in SS is anywhere from $100-$200 by itself, then SS mufflers, &
then all of the pipes are SS to, I could not buy it for less than $500, and of
course Mandrel bent pipes have reduced corner galling, from normal benders
which also gives you better flow, a standard bender loses 2-5% in the curve.
