Texas Speed Stainless Steel Long Tubes & Offroad Y Pipe! These Things Are Sweet! $585 Shipped For Everything, Why Buy Pacesetters Seriously?? Kooks & ARH May Be A Little Nicer But Twice The Money. Ill Post Up How They Fit! Shipping Weight Was 59lbs.

BigMac76 06-25-2012 10:32 PM

What grade stainless, 304, 409? Wonder how they'd hold up under the heat after about 10k miles on em. They do look sweet though man!

SLP IROC-Z 06-25-2012 10:34 PM

they are 304 stainless steel, 16 gauge

ILuvPizzaTimes10 06-26-2012 02:09 AM

they will take the heat just fine and discolor just like kooks and arh's. Looks Great Joe!!! bet yah cant wait till they get on!!! doing em before nats?

SLP IROC-Z 06-26-2012 03:28 AM

im sure theyll turn colors, 304 stainless will do that. the downpipe on my truck is yellowed from the heat.

mike, i just checked out those OBX headers and they arent the same at all. tubes are run completely different, collectors are different as well. they are designed after the FLPs. TSPs look more like hookers.

ILuvPizzaTimes10 06-26-2012 03:32 AM

Ahhhh yeah i was just looking quick!

BadBird505 06-26-2012 03:50 AM

if i still have my car next year i'll be installing TSP headers, can't beat em' for the money

KLAB 07-09-2012 07:56 PM

yeah if I do an LS swap OR get an LS car going with those saw them in person @ Joes look like real good quality and POLISHED AS SHIT! :klab:
