My bad i posted this on wrong thread. It was for another one. Ive seen rich kids say ya my cars so awsome it has etc etc done to it acting like they made it this way. I understand if you have to have other places install stuff for you.
If this post was directed at me, I did install all of my own parts myself.
My whole point, was that I am in no way the best "mechanic" so to speak, but I had no trouble getting my set of tsp headers and y to fit, and have seen several other fellow f-bodys running around locally with the same exact setup which have had zero complaints themselves.
Everyone runs into a snag at some point, but instead of hopping online bashing someones product (which HAS shown to work fine for many others) first thing before taking the time to figure it out, maybe try and give the company a call first(this applies for all companys and products), before trying to give them a bad rep online. They didnt purposly design and sell you a product that wont work in your application, so Im sure they will be happy to help/answer your questions to get you going...

Also never said tsp wasn't good i said kooks is higher quality and fitment. Tsp has great things they sell i just think there headers and y pipe are not as good as some other companys. Tsp has great products not as good as some on some parts. The cams are awsome for tsp.

Just curious, which TSP parts do you have on your cars? And how many Kooks products?
Curious how you liked/disliked the two from your first hand experiences with each, and if you could give a detailed review of each for those of us in the market looking at making a purchase. Thanks!

TSP's new headers smash any price of the competition. Along with any other modification, it CAN involve a little more work. FWIW, I will be ordering a set to finish my build. Thanks for all your past/present/future help TSP and thank you for serving this community with outstanding service and products.

Ill be ordering a set this winter, because I want to redo my whole exhaust. Do people typically replace the 02s during a header swap or reuse them? I've never really seen it talked about before. I have 1 3/4" Pacesetters/TSP Offroad Y-Pipe now, and want to switch to 1 7/8" TSP's/Custom Y-Pipe.
Can't wait to get rid of my short headers for these TSPs! picked up the car and is very quiet no drone what so ever it comes alive when WOT I'm very excited but the down side is very low to the ground. Pics are coming later on today I have to go to work.
How do you know where they source there material from? Either way I see absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to support products made in the USA, something were seeing less and less of in this country. I will happily pay extra for Kooks or ARH when I switch to 1 7/8. And this has absolutely nothing to do with TSP...I've spent over 2k with them this year alone and am happy with their products.

uh.... try again. I don't know about ARH, but I know Kooks stainless steel tubing is manufactured by a company located directly behind kooks facility! Like literately DIRECTLY BEHIND kooks facility, you could throw a rock from Kooks and hit the company that manufactures their stainless tubing..... so..... TRY AGAIN!
