That's the company that they sent me. I couldn't remember it for the life of me.

SSAutoChrome and LPP are made by the exact same company.

Exactly, but they are different from regular ebay headers. Looking back, they aren't worth the price difference. I should have bought some cheaper ebay headers and had a some custom duals fabbed up.

I heard that they are extremely loud because the mufflers are small inside the pipes

They aren't any louder than TSP bullets and imo they aren't raspy like the bullets (from what I've seen on youtube, anyway). That's what you get for buying true duals dumped, some people like it real loud.

But are LPP true duals made by the ebay company too?

The LPP true duals hang really low...............just check my threads. I had it and got rid of it. It was actually quieter then my current setup.

I don't foresee them being that cheap. I hope I'm wrong.

Damn that's sweet. Glad to be proven wrong. I highly, HIGHLY doubt with as good as company as TSP are they would risk putting their name on some re branded ebay headers.

I'm going to go as far as to say they won't be.

On a side note I have XS headers which were before the LPP name got put on them. The headers fit really well except the driver side collector was too close to the floor board and have to be cut and re welded. Then come to find out the little star piece that goes on the inside of the collector between each primary tube wasn't there. So after getting full exhaust on the car my exhaust guy started it and it sounded like a farm truck. That had to be fixed too.

The y pipe didn't fit that great, mainly because of the driver side collector so high up. That was fabbed too with a flowmaster merge.

But I think I paid 450 shipped or something like that for headers/y pipe several years back so I can't complain.

I would probably pick up the TSP's if they were 500 and reuse my current exhaust setup. Yet I digress.
