I'm going to be doing a 4" aluminum exhaust on my crx drag car this season and was wondering about bends. did people buy prebent parts or just have a shop bend them for you after you figure out the bends you need? and what about mufflers? does everyone just v-band a stainless one on?

 

I used the pre bent stuff. works really well.

 

what thickness? .065?

 

yes .065" wall and it welds up verry nice.

 

thanks. i found a local metal dealer to buy the straight section from. wheres a goos place to look for the pre-made bends?

^^^ yup, thats where I got mine.

 

sweet, i actually found the piping at a scrap metal yard for $2 per lb. got roughly 35 ft for $75. gonna do a couple cars now. as for bends, my car will only have 2 slight offsets, so we are gonna do pie cuts on it. wish us luck
