Default Anyone running TTS headers???

I really like the quality of these headers, especially the ball fit flanges. What are the pros and cons? What kind of gains did you see with this system? Do they compare to the grotty style header? Also I noticed that the y-pipe comes with cats, I would like to do without that if possible. I would appreciate any info!!!

I have a set on my car. They aren't bad but I would probably get the QTP / Thunder Racing headers if I was going to get new ones now.

They were hard to install, had to beat on my driver's side floor board to get that header up.
I can't give you any performance numbers but I could easily tell a difference with them.

Also, you can't get the y-pipe without cats, that's one of my biggest gripes against them.

My car is lowered so this brings up a big clearance issue!

They are very good quality throughout. The passenger side is a snap, but the drivers side was a pain. I would buy the without the cats and y-pipe, and have a local shop build you one with the flowmaster y. I put down an extra 25 hp/ 25 ftlb to the wheels with my head cam car over the shorties that I replaced. That was with their y-pipe and cats. I am doing a new setup now without the cats, but it is still a work in progress.

I occasionaly drag mine but it's mostly the cat area. If you didn't have the cats it wouldn't be as big of a problem.
