Message: [QUOTE="Charles, post: 1016154, member: 103"] Just get some donuts and a straight stick in whatever size you plan to use. It will be much simpler, look nicer and flow better. Muffler shop benders are crap compared to a donut. If your header shop has a mandrel bender then I don't know what you've done to the owner to have him tie it up on something like that. There would be a lot of waste on a mandrel machine anyway. Donuts and straight sticks, one afternoon and done. I hope that thing quiets down some when hooked up... sounds like the crappy point when the fan clutch locks up every now and then and you just have to deal with it until it goes away again. Hopefully it doesn't stay that obnoxious all the time. Another problem with a crank driven unit.... it doesn't know when to stfu because you're just cruising. I remember a cobra with an obnoxious blower making noise from hell one time. It was super annoying at full power as I pulled past until my rear bumper was out in front of his front bumper and the racket finally drowned out behind me. He thought his blower motor was da bomb... Traction was my only issue off the start. His too. So go figure, the blower was no good down low and got walked up top. Other than Mad max and the last of the V8's, I've got no love for blowers. When he layed it down on a 1000cc bike that thought he was the sh*t that did plant a seed in my head though. Outrunning a streetbike with a car.... almost as fun as outrunning a sports car with a lifted diesel.... But seriously, get you some donuts and a straight stick and rock out, Tig or Mig. Done. Is a superduty CAC tube setup not even close enough to start with? [/QUOTE]
