reason I ask is, crush bends majorly reduce the diameter of the piping, killing flow. That many bends=major flow kill on that dual setup. If you can get it replaced with mandrel bends, you might actually see some horsepower come back.

Yes, I know what mandrel pipe is... I use it along with stainless vs aluminized piping on all my builds. I went this route because I'm doing extensive mods and fabrication to the chassis for the next phase om my build and clearance issues are expected. My fabricator will be doing the new cat back after the new bed, 4 link, and new modular bag kit is installed.

This was the mandrel pipe I used on last build
