I always wondered why there weren't more mandrel bent downpipes instead of all the welded pieces of sections on most of the downpipe versions on the market. And to still be cheaper than all of them....nice product. Too bad I didn't wait a bit longer to get my DP's.

Except those have about 15 very bad looking welds. I'm going to venture to say those are made in China by a not so good manufacturer. Just remember, you drive an m6, not a honda del sol.

And that's the exact reason I have Gintani catless downpipes on my M6...

Was simply attempting to share the cheaper options available on the market.

I don't know too much about downpipes, but I was reading that what's important is the bend radius. A smooth longer bend is better than a sharp sudden bend. Correct me if I'm wrong. I think that's why I bought my Fabworx. 4 inch bend vs 3 inch bend

+1 on a catted version. I'm interested, but don't want to worry about a CEL or the smell.
