Default Guys with LPP Headers

I've had the LPP Stainless headers and stainless Y pipe on my car for over 2 years now. My question is does anyone else have problems with exhaust leaks behind the header collector? I hate slip on collectors now. Really thinking about upgrading to KOOKS or something just to have collector bolts and no damn annoying Exhaust leaks.

I've already tried wrapping header tape under the band clamp, and that didn't help at all. I'm kinda thinking about taking the High temp Orange silicone and coated the tube where they slide together and see if that won't seal it any better.

Red silicone is a good solution. Working so far for me!
