I have 'em. Same install procedure... I did have issues with sealing some of the slip joints and the driver's cat (I have the 3.5 inch y-pipe and RT metallic cats) is very low. I think these are typical problems with all headers of this design. One nice feature is the y-pipe was also coated!

He was supposed to send me a new y-pipe as soon a new batch was made to correct the problem.......haha yea right
Now they are under "change of ownership" and I haven't been able to contact anyone.
The LTs look great.....the coating still looks new.....but that Y-pipe.....what a piece of crap.....not to mention I had to have the Y pipe flared by an exhaust shop since none of the pieces fit together
Atleast they didn't even charge me to do that.And that wonderful Y-pipe that drags on all things it shouldn't.....I wanted to lower my car about an inch to get rid of the 4 X 4 look.....but that isn't happening until I get a decent Y-pipe on the car.
Did I mention the system sounds awesome.....lol
But none the less I paid a lot of money for a big piece of **** IMO that was *supposed* to be the best. Sorry for the rant but this is definitely a sore subject for me.
