Mandrel Bending Solutions Home Page

Is this a place i can order pipes pre bent to the shapes i need to build a custom system on my sonic? If Yes, THANK YOU!! because if i can get all the pipes i need to build a custom setup on my sonic. I'll just buy all the pipes needed to do so and ask my uncle to build it for me and just pay him to do it. He is a certified welder and has done many things for me in past to my cars. The main reason i havent asked him to do this one is because of the fact i know he wont do it himself unless the pipes are already pre-bent to the shape needed to build each section. if i have the pipes prebent already to shape. im sure if i paid him to do it, he would build it for me.

Just looked over the site. THANK YOU eric. i will have to give these people a call and see what they can do for me. Much appreciated man.

 

[Eric Smit]

yep.

yea i have a friend that will build me a NON mandrel bent system for 200, but id rather have a mandrel bend system. but im not pushing alot of power so it s not really that important. I just want a better flowing system cause im going for MPG's not performance.

Im looking to give my sonic some sound and if it gives the car more getup and go thats a plus! Eventually i will get it tuned. But til then all im looking for is to make my sonic so when i start it up i can actually hear it running and be more fun to drive. Stock its a snoozefest.

my sonic is creenty in the shop getting a new engine pt in it...but once i get it back ill be installing the zzp catback and ill get some video with my gopro and post them up

 

[SubSonic]

A new engine, what did you do to it to need a new engine?

 

[Spartan_chaz]

It had a knock at idle at mail 700. And the dealer gave me such a run around to try and screw me over. Well only thing I can do is have them replace the engine and if the new engine makes any abnormal noises then I can claim it under lemon law because this is the third time if had to leave my brand new car at the dealer for the same problem...

hey guys i finally got my car back which even that was a fight...they broke something and didnt want to own up to it but they ended up having to pay for an intake manifold because of it. But, car has a new engine in it and monday i will be putting the cat-back exhaust on after work assuming i have the time and our lift isnt taken >.< and videos will come soon after.

 

[Spartan_chaz]

For those interested i now put the ZZP catback on my 1.8 hatchback. I will be taking videos within the next few days and will get them up asap

 

[$ub$onic]

I would have been pissed if they broke my intake

 

[Spartan_chaz]

I would have been pissed if they broke my intake

oh trust me i was! I yelled at both the techs that worked on it and the manager because they were asking that i pay for it...eventually they gave in and had to eat the cost of the intake. As iv probably said before the best experiance iv had with this dealer is the actual purchase of the car...i honestly regret buying the car only because iv been treated so poorly...

 

[$ub$onic]

My dealer is the same way. I would rather fix my own car them let them idiots touch it

yeah im going to be changing my own oil now, even though i paid them for the first year or so for free ones. Mainly because when the knock was there in the old engine there exact words to me were "we called GM engineering and they told us a little rod knock is ok"....i dont want ANYONE who believes that working on my car even something as simple as changing the oil

 

[SubSonic]

Have you had the chance to gmake a sound bit yet. Cause I'm really looking forward to hearing what this system sounds like on the 1.8.

 

[MrSnuggles]

Bump. Any news on the sound of the Exhaust yet?

 

[SubSonic]

im thinking he isnt gonna get a video and put it up here for us to hear it.
