Is anyone here running the 2'' TSP Headers? Just wanted some reviews(clearance, fitment, etc). And also does anyone know if TSP is the only ones that sell them or are there other vendors? Thanks in advance

Unless you are FI or insane HP ,1 7/8 headers would be a better bet .

There are several people running 2in without a problem but there are MANY more incidences of clearance issues with 2in over 1 7/8 and 1 3/4. That's not just the TSP's but 2in headers period. The choice is yours as to whether you want to chance it.

I have the 1 7/8 Headers and they fit fine without having to modify the headers or anything. I also helped a friend install a set of 2" on his 2011 and we didn't have any issues either.

I wonder if you would loose low end torque on a bolt on only car with 2 inch headers.

Had to dimple mine... It was barely touching the steering shaft when turning hard right... Not bad... Just a slight rub... Enough to annoy me
Took about 30-40 minutes to fix with a socket

Nope, Camarojt runs 2" headers on his bolt on car and runs 11.40s so they work well

Well if you have to dimple the primaries youre restricting flow at that point, which is not worth it to me in the end. Im not 100% sold on the fitment. Im just torn on what i should do due to future plans and dont want to have to re purchase headers down the road.

How the hell can he run 11.40 with a stock cam and just Headers and cold air ? I need to have mine retuned by his tuner if that is the case.

With the right tuner and parts it has been done. Check the fast list there's around 7 L99s in the 11.90s to 11.40s with boltons.

GONIF · 09-03-2014, 02:56 PM

got the list ,going to contact 02pewtesix and see what the deal is .

Putting a small dimple in one of the primaries is not going to restrict the airflow.

I have 2" TSP headers. They rest squarely on the passenger side frame rail so, I'll have to dimple them at some point. TSP offered to sell me just the passenger side header to solve the problem but, I didn't think that was a viable option. I'd rather just dimple it - which I think is the lesser of two evils.
