Ordered some Jeg's cat delete pipes since I read they were the best ones in regards to fitment. I can say that yes, they do fit pretty well and I don't believe I have any exhaust leaks (reused OEM gaskets w/ 4k miles) at the headers or ball clamp. However the quality is pretty shitty, looks like straight china e-bay quality downpipes. If anyone is thinking of picking these up I would recommend another brand, just IMO.

They fit perfect and dont leak. You can always have them dipped in 24 carat gold if that makes you feel any better...otherwise enjoy the awesome new soundtrack and extra hp.

LOFL. They don't look all that bad and they fit. My Summit stainless deletes did not fit at all.

Well, in my previous car I ordered a $150 downpipe from Godspeed (note:: China ebay quality) and it was phenominal quality. I just assumed a Jeg's downpipe kit would probably have been made in USA and thus equal quality. Regardless of the terrible welds and overlapping flange everything else was fine. The x-pipe is a BBK xpipe and they both fit perfectly together. I'm tuning it today and will post a vid of the exhaust. It's loud under WOT, raspy in the higher range +4k but in a good way. Cat/res deletes, BBK xpipe, GT500 mufflers. Cold starts are pretty obnoxious, but other than that I can cruise by below 1.5k (average cruising RPM for me) and you can blend in with traffic.

As long as the weld aren't cracking, and the penetration is what it should be, I don't find any problem with them. Mine fit like a glove too. Just need to get new clamps to solve some exhaust leak issues.

Yeah. Get some Roush ABs with LTs, O/R X and no resonators. Then once you get yoru hearing aid installed, come back to us.
