Texas Speed Heads on 2013 2SSM6
I am fixing to order the 1 7/8" headers from Texas Speed. As my car has the new NPP exhaust I wanted to see if anyone else has put these heads on their car with the NPP exhaust and if there were any issues fitment or otherwise.

I have the same headers, the clamps are cheap and don't seal completely. Suggest you get a wider clamp or just have someone weld them like I did. You will need 02 extensions. FYI, remove the sensors when you have the pipes off the car, much easier.

I would suggest you DO NOT weld your exhaust especially your headers. It will make it waaaay easier to work on just in case shit happens and you need to replace something in or around your exhaust. Then your gonna have a hacked up exhaust system. There are some good stepped clamps out there that you can get at NAPA and they won't leak. Just my .2

Never had anyone complain about the clamps before!?!? Lots of guys like this style, I personally think they sill better than the thinner wide ones. I always thought the wide ones didnt squeeze good enough to seal anything!?!?!
