Who would be interested in a custom mandrel bent stainless Crossover with stainless braided flexes?

I built one on my can and have been running it for a while now. would you guys be interested in them if i made them? I would need your stock x-overs for the stock flanges and EGR Bung. the mandrel bends are much better flowing the the stock bends, so you will not have restrictions due to the crossover feeding the turbo. it should result in faster spoolup times, more overall flow out of the engine to the turbo.
here are pics of my mandrel X-over (EGR Removed)

also i have made a Custom downpipe for my car. i wanted to know how much interest there is in the downpipe.
here is a pic. it is 2.5" Mandrel Bent. it will be flange to flange and will need to be perfessionally installed.

If all you need is the flanges could you take a n/a 3.1 x-over?  I don't want the egr bung.  (Twill be removed from coding)  And perhaps throw a different flange on there?   :lol:

Good point.  If we're going to start messing around with custom x-overs, wouldn't this be a good oppurtunity to rig up a flange that would accept....say....a T3?   :shock:

And what's involved with deleting the EGR?

FWIW, my TGP crossover was rebuilt by Shane using SS braided flexes, and it looks really good.  i have yet to actually use it tho.

Faster spooling? If the T-25 spools any faster we'll have full boost at idle.

i'm gonna be interested in getting a new x-over... wether it be this one or one from Jeff M possibly debatable.
