The Down piping is very tight and is actually going to require some 1D bends. Luckily the new tubing bender can go this tight (we are actually one of very few in the industry with a bender like this)...HOWEVER it isn't yet programmed for tubing that size in radii that tight.

So, for production purposes we will be OK... In the mean time, we are slowed up in R&D until we get the kinks out of the new bender. We expect to have some progress to show towards the end of the week.

A free flowing downpipe will cause a loss of boost which means less power. If you do this you better have a tuner to compensate for loss of boost.

Haha better tell that to the guys at livernois. Since they deal with turbo and supercharged cars on a daily basis.
