It makes a huge difference.

The mandrel allows the exhaust pipes to be bent into smooth curves without undesirable creasing, kinking, or collapsing.
The mandrel bending or the silencer makes a huge difference?

Mandrel bent vs. Crush bent is a huge difference, mandrel bends are smooth all the way through, crush bends have ripples throughout the inside of the bend and make exhaust flow less effecient.

What kind of machine/tools do they use to do mandrel bending?

I'm honestly not sure... The machine that you were talking about sounds like it could be but I don't know enough about exhaust customization to be certain....
