Can't see it making masses of difference, but it would change the tone of the exhaust more if anything. So long as you don't direct the gases back towards the front of the car at any point, you shouldn't loose much if any power.

this is what I was thinking as the gases all ways find there way out I have mad slight alteration to my ex system and its now perfect fit so in fact I have got ride of a 90% bend and now replaced with a 45% bend but the rest of system had to be modified to accept the more striate exhaust system
