Hey guys, looking for some suggestions on replacement exhaust clamps. I have an SLP Loudmouth 2 exhaust. Most of the clamps that came with the exhaust are the cheap universal clamps that have just one bolt that tightens on one side only. I keep finding that every 6-8 weeks, the exhaust manages to work itself loose a few inches so that it starts making contact with some part of the underside of the car - and that comes along with all kinds of "fun" noises.

So my question is this - do any of you have suggestions for some more effective exhaust clamps? And if so, where do you purchase them? Any feedback is appreciated.

 

Accuseal band clamps are great.

 

Can you have the clamps welded to the pipes?

 

Latch - question for you. I have read a little bit about them online and keep hearing amazing things... but how are those different than any standard universal clamp? That looks a lot like what I have on mine now (although I'm sure SLP didn't include band clamps that expensive in a $400 exhaust). Is it something with the materials or construction?

 

My Magnaflow catback came with them and all the pipes have stayed put and there's no leaks. I bought a no-name band clamp from NAPA for my Y-pipe and it's not quite as nice... it's flimsy and much thinner than the Accuseals.
