Pypes Headers

Who has any experience with the longtubes and X pipe? I've seen a few people say they had some rattling issues but am wanting some more info about fitment, etc, before I pull the trigger. Thanks!

Why do you say that? Do you have experience with them both?

As they say, you get what you pay for. Everyone I know who runs Pypes products have fitment issues, myself included.

Ive heard good things about Stainless works and American racing(?)
No experience with either.

The top 3 USA brands like Kooks, SW and ARH all fit 110% perfect. The stainless powers brand also fits amazing for the price. The pypes seems to be hit or miss on some, I personally run them and had the steering shaft rub. Nothing a little hammer couldn't fix.

I have pypes lts and their off-road x, and no issues.

I have Pypes, they're fine now that they're on the car, but if I had it to do again, I'd do ARH or SW's. my first driver's side header cleared the steering shaft, which is a big problem for Pypes, well this one hit the floor board under heavy load, they replaced it, well lol, what do you know, that one hit the steering shaft!! easy fix with a few washers under the motor mount bracket, but none the less, I wouldn't buy them again

I'd look into stainless power if on a budget.

pypes is a great economic brand, they are 304 stainless, them and the stainless power are our 2 best selling brands

Can you pm me price on both catted x and off road x please?

 

[oldbones]

Buy the ebay speedmaster headers. They are the same design as pipes and only $300. The only thing I have to do was dent the primary by the steering shaft.

Do you have pictures? Is it really cheap steel?

I've had them on my car now for 7000 miles. I don't have any pictures of mine, but I was impressed with how the welds looked when I got them. http://store.speedmaster79.com/p-39...-long-tube-stainles-steel-exhaust-header.aspx

I've got a set of Stainless Powers with their off-road X installed on my '13 earlier this spring. I choosed them because my dad had the same exact setup installed on his '11 last year.

Both had an excellent fit without issues or rattling.

Any dyno numbers? Or video? I think those will be my selection.

Im also curious as to where the 02 sensors are pointed.

Noticed some are kinda pointed down towards road...not good I would say.

Splitting hairs here but your sig says you have stainless works. There is a significant price difference between the two so if you are reviewing a product, so to speak, just want to make sure which one you're talking about.
