Hmmm...I have TTSs and they don't look like that....maybe it's just the picture. That is not a TTS Y pipe, they use a flowmaster collector on their Y. Power is fair - kooks or QTPs are better, quality is good, their customer service is awful.

Back when I bought my TTS headers, the only other choices were Mac mid length and FLP. I like how the TTS flanges are 1/2" thick, but with todays offerings, I'd go with either Kooks or Stainless works.

My ypipe is 2.5".

TTS customer service sucks big time, and I don't think they even manufacture them anymore.

They actually fit pretty well, they came with instructions on where to "clearence" the floorboard.

Besides.. I'm pretty sure SLP has that title wrapped up

I have TTS headers and the install was great, fit is awsome, and clearance is no problem. TTS only has catted y's. They don't offer off road pipes. The thick flanges won't bend, therefore they are leak free. There Customer Service does suck, but I went there route since Gmmg's phase II's use TTS. Today I would by Kooks if I was purchasing headers now.

Here is a vid I took with TTS open headers and my little TR224 cam.

I also bought TTS's, way back in '02 when it was that, FLPs, SLPs, and Mac's. They've been good to me, but are starting to show their age (coating flaking off and rusty primaries). Y pipe is only 2.5" ID. Only comes with cats, and they're known to be relatively poor flowing compared to others (flow about as well as the stockers). My car made good power with them though, can't complain. Fitament is very good, install was pretty easy. The thick flanges are nice. Not a bad header, but definitely better choices out there (QTP, Kooks, etc) nowdays.
