If mandrel bending is your main issue, worry no more, for the newest budget y-pipe is mandrel bent. However, there are other concerns to be had. Just check the for sale section regarding the Cattman promotional offer on their y-pipe, and read my post regarding the quality of the budget, the cattman and the warpspeed y-pipes.

I was thinking about the WSP, but the price got me leaning towards budget. Budget recently released a mandrel bent pipe and have people testing it out. They plan to sell the SS mandrel bent for $195us. The new pipe, according to some ppl with it, say that it has a "vintage VW" sound to it that is coming out of the flex section. Mendrel bending will yield less than 2hp gain compared to non-mandrel bent. The budget is SS so it shouldn't rust, but I think the welds are not SS, but don't quote me on that. I would be mad if I got the pipe and it had the VW sound to it. I hope to be getting a Budget soon if my budget allows

that's what I always wonder when I'm considering another mod... "if I order right now, when will it be in my hands?"
