Should exhaust leak be a concern?

Just wondering how many of you who have LT headers, universal HFC's, and a catback experienced exhaust leak by using band clamps clamps.

They shouldn't leak. if it's the slip joints, try using 02 sensor safe sealer when you join the pipes.

Both mine leaked at the joint where header attached to cat. After installing my catback at home I took the car to my exhaust guy and he found them. He put some sealer on them and tightened the clamps. Fixed the problem.
