Mine went in good.
The Y-pipe wasn't the best fitting (had to man-handle the two pieces together). I had the Y welded together (at the Y joint) for a better sealed exhaust. It seems like the band clamps between the headers and Y are leaking slightly though (both sides). Anyone experience this? If so, what's the best way to seal them up?

The other thing that may be causing me issues is that I had to notch the clamps (about 3/4" V) because they would have hit the O2 bungs. I wondered if that would affect the seal...

Hmm...So you took off the band clamp and put a bead around the slip-fitting then re-installed the clamp? That doesn't seem too difficult.

I love mine for the money. Had em on for a few months and a thousand miles. Used felpro 1406 header gaskets instead of the ones that came with. Can't find any leaks but it sure sounds like it especially where the primaries meet at the collectors but this could just be normal, any way you may want to use piercy's header gaskets and def use band style clamps! I did also have a slight misalignment problem with the bolt holes on the flange on the driver's side, had to oblong the holes.

I got mine from DNAMOTORING/Speeddaddy. They are either 2 3/4 or 2 7/8 inch. All the other sellers I found were 2 1/2 inch primaries. They are great knockoffs for the price.

The ground clearance is much better than I expected of them.

That being said...I do realize the ones you bought have some benefits such as the stepped primaries and merge collector, but I'd personally rather have the ones that fit easier.

Looks like you guys are right, they are not listed on their eBay store anymore. The only thing I see is just the stainless y-pipes. Wonder why they stopped making them?
