Anyone know where I can get Mandrel Bent sections in TO?

Looking for a place to buy mandrel bent pipe sections in the GTA.
I need to find 2.5" 90degree bends.

For intercooling pipes so can be aluminum or aluminized steel. Stainless is a waste of $$ for what Im using it for.

Any ideas? Most muffler shops have press-bent pipes.

The Truck Exhaust Shop. They carry many different sized piping ranging from 2" - 6" + (mandrel). Aluminzed steel. The owner is a cool guy. Good prices, and he does excellent welding too.

It is near Dixie and Britania, coming off of the 401 (going north on Dixie), it will be on the 3rd or 4th street on your right side (I dont recall the name of the street). Its a big shop, you can't miss it.

Zorro Muffler... 2 ro 3 lights west of Dixe, on the south side of Dundas.

They have all kinds of mandrel bends available in stock... That's where I went to build my custom CAI.

Seems like all you guys are out on the west end. I called up Majestic Muffler in Scarborough and they ordered the two 90's I needed. Ugly aluminized piping with the mandrel marks dug into the bend, but if it works, I will make the rest of the kits with polished aluminum Vibrant pipes.
Thanks for the help.

Truck Exhaust Place
1365 Bonhill Road, Mississauga, ON L5T1M1
(905) 670-0100

I did some searchin and I found the shop you guys were talking about... not the Truck Exhaust "Shop", it's the truck exhaust "place".

I'm picking up some bends from them this morning, I would just like to thank you guys here for the information found in this thread... I actually searched on Google for a GTA location that sells mandrel bent tubing and one of the searches that came up was the link to this thread... kinda stumbled into this forum.. but I'm glad I did....

They cost a lot more now.

Originally when I first stumbled into the place 2 years ago, I just went and talked to the owner of the place and explained to him what I needed and what it was for and we picked it out and he even welded up my piping on the spot, DIRT CHEAP. Unfortunately, they now have a more "professional" layout with a secratary and computer to control all the pricing, so you don't get the same kinda "deals." They typically deal with big diameter piping though (4"+) it is still a good place though, good luck.
