Default down pipe problems

ok i got a love fab down pipe for the h22 turbo swap.

but i did not compensate for the angle converting to h2b swap so the down pipe is a diffrent angle???
so now my problem is connecting the down pipe and exaust. either i can run a s curve pipe and call it done or get a new down pipe.

Main question do you think the extra curves in the exaust will hinder power/torque??

I just spent the money to have it swain tech coated also so i would hate to have it modified, but if i have no other choice.

probably not.. think about how tight the bend is off of the turbo.
