those things are WAY shinier than my TSP headers. So maybe while built similarly they have more than a few obvious differences. I can't wait to hear a vid of how it sounds. i'm really anxiously hoping that my ST gets out of the body shop Friday so I can have my long tubes installed on Saturday.

Still kinda surprised you didn't get 02 extensions though.

Where did you get them? Ebay? Trying to get something not that expensive for my car and at $620 they look pretty good. Thanks in advance sir.

eBay. $620 shipped including the resonators and lead pipes is a steal. Next closest is pypes at $900 for their headers with off-road lead pipes and I had pypes (also made overseas) and these appear to be higher quality overall (thicker stainless tubes with larger collector and a merge spike. These are welded mostly on the outside which means the bores are free of weld slag like the pypes had.

you guys need to hit me up on the pypes

the pypes stepped are a great design, we just made 750 on a whipple setup with them.

and no where near 900 through me.....

just gotta shoot that pm

Ugh it's raining again. :( I hope the roads dry so I can do a drive by video.

Ok I'll try to have my wife take a drive by video tonight after work as long as the roads are dry. Typical Florida storms around 5pm right as I'm leaving work lol.

I noticed my CHTs are consistently lower now. They used to be 208-215 and now I cannot get them above 203 and normally 199 now and it's hot and humid as hell still.

Looking forward to see your video. Trying to make a decision between these or the pypes stepped desygn. Have heard some clips of the pypes and they seem to be a litle raspy above 3000-4000 rpm range, plus don't know if the stepped design will be a restriction for me since my car is already supercharged. Thanks again sir

I had pypes on my 2013 and these definitely feel like they make more power everywhere whereas the pypes died off a lot up top. Sound wise these are thicker stainless so less "header rasp" and engine noise I fact I cannot tell they are on there at idle with the pypes it had a tinny idle and a lot of in car rasp coming from up front at wide open.

Your muffler choice will have some impact on sound as well but long tubes definitely have a higher pitched more exotic tone on this motor vs the stock shorties.

Well i went ahead and just got them, your video took too long lol, just a quick question are they 17/8? still not sure. Thanks

we just made 759 rwhp through the pypes, on a local install. highest power we've racked up on a basic blower e85 conversion....

It keeps raining here lol. I want to do a little fly by at wide open throttle but not happening until the roads dry. Got more raining coming any minute too lol.

They sound good and they fit really well. You will be pleased just make sure you have a 3" catback you are connecting these to because they are a 3" performance connect. If not you will have to neck the mid pipes down or weld them to your catback like I did.
