Default Header Reducers

Ok this is turning out to be a headache!!! The guy who is installing my true dual exhaust wants slip on header reducers. I go to Ramchargers and they have nothing like that, just the simple weld on flanges that bolt on to the true dual sytem. I buy those and take'em back to him and he says these have tendencies to leak and that I shouldn't weld a flange onto my header. Remind you I have Kooks and want to go to 2 1/2 td sytem. The guy says go onto Kooks website and they probably have the slip on reducers, guess what their online catalog is down!!!!!! F#@$K The guy really has no choice but to weld the flanges onto the headers! I've talk to different exhuast places and they've heard nothing like that(slip on) All headers usually have flanges on them, but ours don't because we have the y-pipe that downsizes them. So the guy should just weld the flanges on them right?

I got two slip fit 18" long pipes for 3" piping from Jegs. It was $40 plus handling. I've never used them and would sell them for $30 shipped. PM me if you're intersted. I can ship them out Monday so you wont be held up any longer.
