Hi all...

I'm just wondering whether having a mandrel bent exhaust will make alot of difference as apposed to one with bends welded on....dodgy but yeh. It seems my zorst has several little bends welded on.....just curios as to whether its gonna be worth the money to actually get a mandrel bend zorst and am i gonna notice the performance.

cheers

btw. my current exhaust is 3.5 inches from the car back

*from car back.....kekekeke :P

mines cut and welded on some joints but overall the straighter the pipe the better... overall is it worth the extra money? if u want the best then mandrel prolly....cause the weld beads will not allow the gases to flow as good, how big or small impact i dunno... :)

If you dont wish to pay the money to get the pipe mandrel bend, I think next best would be using donuts. Its also cut and weld but its very close to mandrel without decreasing diameter from normal bends. Good to have it HPC treated, retain heat in the exhaust for better flow but they are dear.

    • Damn, as someone who just glued the damn things in (very slightly askew but better) I wish I saw this, or someone made this. Would be worth linking this to Boosted International. They're always looking for product ideas and this is something they would likely make.
    • You know what, I'll double or nothing. Save your money, buy a V8 Manual Mustang in 2 years and have a more fun street car with better support and all that. I often tell people "if I could do it all again, I wouldn't". Sell your R34 GTT to someone, spend the 20k in difference between that and a 2018 Gen2 V8 Manual Mustang. I'll bet you will have the $ in your pocket by the time you spend the ~20K differential on mods and get them installed. Just planting this seed for future regrets. Blah blah, wisdom of people who would do it differently who are at the end of the road you are just starting on, etc. Car modding is often death by a thousand cuts as you wait to afford the next big mod. Imagine a 2 door Skyline with a 330KW N/A V8 Revving to 7500rpm like the RB25, with 315's all round.
    • Yes I'm going through a similar thing with my R33 with rust in seams due to dried out seam sealer cracking. After much research I settled on Penetrol. Read what it does and its done a bloody fantastic job for me. Pressure pack comes with a thin tube to get into hard to reach places.
