JC Whitney aluminum mandrel bends?

[altered7151]

A while ago somebody posted a link to some cheap mandrel bent aluminum tubing on JC Whitney's website. For the life of me I cant find them anywhere on their site, either I'm loosing my mind (highly possible) or they took them off. Anybody buy any of these or have a link to them?

I bought some U bends from Summit Racing not too long ago for a relatively good price.

Don't know if that helps you out or not, but probably worth a look.

Summit is where I got mine as well

Aluminum? If so summit is about 2 miles from my house, I know they sell the steel, just never saw the aluminum ones before. I'll look into it. Thanks!

If you want to go all out, there is a company somewhere on Honda-Tech.com that sells a universal piping kit with U bends, 90's, straights etc in all different sizes including the T bolt clamps and the silicone connectors for $170 total. It's really worth it in the end if you've got the means to cut and weld your setup.

It's aluminized steel, not aluminum.

Its steel as pictured.

I could have swore somebody posted a link to their site and it was aluminum bends. Maybe my wife is right and I've lost it.

Women can tell these things......

It would be awesome if they did sell aluminum bends, but with my welding skills with MIG on aluminum, it would look horrid when finished.... :)

How much you need? I will have some 45^ and straights left over from my kit that the "honda-tech" guy was talking about.

I need two 60* bends. I was probably just going to buy one 180* and cut it on the bandsaw.

How about these...

Also check out Burns Stainless (www.burnsstainless.com) and ATP Turbo (http://www.atpturbo.com)

Yeah ATP has always had really reasonable prices, I've bought a few things from them and they ship really fast too.

I've bought a few things from ATP with sucess, a frined of mine bought the gt28/71 turbo kit for his a4 with them. He did not have anything bad to say about them either.

Try this one as well. They have the "swaged" end pipes ( makes fitting them together easier ). I believe my estimate is about $70 for my exhaust.
