You're not afraid that the primaries will leak if the collector isn't welded on?

How did you get them for 480? For me it looks like 510 shipped.

PLEASE post pics once they're installed!

I got them from Kris Jones at SDPC.

No, I am not afraid as a lot of guys run slip fit collectors without a problem. I would be more worried with it leaking at a weld. They slip on there a good amount. They should be on the car fairly soon. We still have to put the converter and trans in, as well as the motor and the rest of the exhaust.

Have you found any Dyno #s with a car running these? Me and my friends are ready to order our full QTP set ups, but if the power is close to the same, with the Merge Collecter, then we'll jump on these, and save the money for other things.

We just got the car all back together and drove it for the first time with these headers and ORY, and a magnaflow catback and TSP MS3 cam. It sounds AWESOME minus the small exhaust leak coming from the slip on collectors. I just have to mess with the collectors to get them to sit right, but other than that, I am pleased.

I really like those... the only thing that bothers me, is i think they could have did a better job of the HVMC's. How long is the Ti-Tec coating last, i really like those!!!

I have the stock K-member and Prothane ployurethane motor mounts. There were no issues installing them, but we already had them installed on the motor, and put the motor and trans all in at once. There is enough clearance where they don't hit the K-member, but in some spots it is really close.

I think the coating will last just as long, if not longer than ceramic coating. It seems to be a little tougher and higher quality than the ceramic.

I will get pics soon, and I am uploading a video as I write this.

I feel I have been ripped not going down this route!
Sweet setup!
