I use wire hangers and scotch brite. Cut the hook off, straighten out, thread scotch brite through hanger, chuck into drill and go to town.

Why are you having to clean the inside of them so much?

The bends i got from Columbia river had a bunch of oil and metal flakes from manufacturing in them.

Ok, so your talking about the initial cleaning, it sounded like more of common practice.

Yes,
For me it is, i do a once over afterward as well, just to make sure no pellets are in it as well, can't hurt at all

I always cleaned mine with boost:hehe: Im just playing. I would take my old twin piping apart and clean just to make sure my big charger wasnt pushing any oil thru it.

I like cleaning the inside after welding them up to double check make sure there is nothing in the that will kill a turbo or engine , better safe then sorry
