Default exhaust pipes question

Does have NORMAL exhaust instead of Mandrel Bent make that much of a diff? The pipes that over the axle, if they are mandrel vr with some crinks makes that much of a diff in a stock car?

I was wondering the same thing....the previous owner put Flow's in, but use the stock 2.25" pipes from the H-pipe back[:@]

mandrel is just a more modern, precise, flowing way of bending pipe rather than welding and grind a whole buncha sections together they'll bend a 10' tube ten different ways to fit perfect.
