that's your problem right there, never go to midas or mienke for a custom exhuast.:nono:

you need to find a custom exhuast shop and honestly unless your making big power I wouldn't worry about mandrel bending. Most shops will not have a machine to do since it's cost alot of money. Your best bet is to either:

1. Buy a name brand catback if you can't find a quality exhuast shop

2. Go to a custom exhaust shop and have them order some mandrel bends to put into the exhaust piping. Companies like magnaflow sell bends in a few angles.
