    Probably just get a good quality stainless one and have it modified. Get the vband flange and a little bit of the same diameter pipe just in case.

    Don't think those are mandrel, just regular bends. I personally would not go to the trouble of making turbo exhaust components out of mild steel.

    no they are mandrel.... they are behind the counter.

    for a diy kit they are ok. also if you wanted to make your own exhaust they are good too. i mean midas has been selling mild steel exhasut for years.

    turbodave, mainstream, batlground, topspeed, or any of the other sponsors can do this for you easily or if you get the parts from somewhere any of them can cut and weld it up for you too

    what size piping are you using...

    if your going 2.5 i gots a vband and clamp from my turbo setup... take some pics of your project so i can see it.

    im going from vband clamp to 5 bolt flange so i really dont need the v band....

    i was thinking anout using it for the down pipe to cat connection but its not that big of a deal
