Default tsp true dual people

1.- how much did you pay to have it all welded up? how long did it take?

2.- for those of you who drive around with the clamps for a while, is there any noticable difference in sound from before/after there welded?

I've had mine for a while now, but still havent gotten around to getting them welded. i was curious too see if the sound was going to change any, and how long it would take and how much it would cost.

why would you weld the xpipe to the headers?

don't they come with all the necessary clamps?

1. Alot $$$. Took the fabricator and I a fresh 8 hours to build, not including ripping off the old stuff.

2. I have 5 clamps in my duals. I designed it that way on purpose for disassembly so could add/subtract the cats when needed.

Sorry, didn't see the "TSP" part in yout title. Too be honest I don't think you sound would change and I would just leave it clamped for removal BUT a few welds shouldn't be too expensive for a competant shop if you're determined to pursue it.

the clamps are leaking like crazy, i can actually hear it hissing at times, and i scrape because the actual clamps hand 1.5 inches down below the exhaust
