Default Little rant...

I just picked up my 01' t/a, it has true duals on it. All well and good but whoever did the exhaust, they clamped it up instead of welding. Well im going to be taking it to the shop to get these clamps welded on to my x pipe. Because everytime i get on it to much in 2nd or even 3rd the pipe slides out of the clamp and makes my car sound like *** haha....sorry for the rant just happend to me to much in a couple of months.

I hear ya on that one. Welding is tough too though, because at some point your going to have to drop that exhaust to mod or whatever and it will have to be dropped as a whole.

I wonder what clamps I have... Had em over a year and they are leak free. I assume they are the ones that came from TSP.

Do you have the 3" wide band clamps? Those are the ones I've had and it stopped all the leaks that the 3/4" inch wide band clamps created.
