Fully Welded TSP Duals

Fully Welded TSP Duals
I'm gonna weld up my duals tomorrow, and was interested to see if anyone has welded the L1 to L2 pipe junction together. Seems like it'd make the exhaust system harder to get off. Of course, I'm not going to weld the exhaust to the headers, but I'd like to weld every other junction.
Has anyone done this?
I'd especially like to see responses from the people at Texas Speed.
Thanks in advance.

Well, I welded everything but the L1 to L2 connection, and when we went to put it back on the car, we found that with antiseize on the inside of the pipe and the outside of the header, the damn thing slid right on. I still have the clamp at that connection for now, but I'm gonna take it back off and weld it soon.
Cliff's notes: The TSP Duals can be fully welded and slid on as one piece.

Bolted at the collectors, every other connection is welded. That makes each pipe one long continues pipe from the collector to the the exhaust tip. It stops any rattles before they can start. Welding also seems to help in holding down pipe shacking and those long continues pipes makes for a great sound.

I had the TSP Y-pipe fully welded. That SOB didn't want to come off. If you look at the headers the driver side points out toward the door and the passenger points straight back. If you take into account that they're slid on pretty far and also pointing away from each other(header collectors) you can see how this would bind up. It's doable but be ready for a wresteling match when it comes time to take them off.

when i build duals that im not gonna have to ship i weld the entire system up
you get both sides started on the headers and while pushing the exhaust toward the headers you move the system side to side and "walk" the pipes up on the headers
it makes removing and installing the exhaust a 5 min job
