my little brother has the fireball style and it looks stupid!!! we thought it was going to have that j-spec angle(up and out)...but it's just pointed to the side...and it's really loud!!! i agree with connie, if it's not sticking out too far, get it

and mandrel bent just means how the piping was bent...
mandrel bent vs. crush bent (most common, done by most muffler shops)
mandrel means they "extend" the piping so that it is the same diameter through the bends and turns...
for crush bent, just think of what happens when you bend a straw, the diameter becomes smaller and its harder to drink out of it... exhaust piping acts the same way... crush bent means less air flow through the bends and turns... less hp..
the term for a muffler coming out sideways is "angled"
