Hate to rain on your parade, but according to TS's website, those are 1.5" primaries. Which basically means you'd might as well remain stock.

The install is spendy (or frustrating if you're doing it yourself) and wouldn't really be worth it for shorty headers (other than the Momentum shorties).

oohhh thanks for the info dude, yeah I was thinking stillen headers as well but these are half the price so I thought id scoop em up. Shorties is what im going with it since long tubes would mean my HFCs have to go. And def not DIY on this one, gonna let the shop do it.

I hear ya.

LTH's with the Motordyne XYZ with the HFC is what I'd do if I had to have cats for some reason.

Just me tho.

What the hell are those?

stevent85 · 01-16-2013, 08:52 AM

I think those are the meisterschaft headers. Like their exhaust......crazy expensive. I remember seein that pic when i was looking around exhausts.

Sh0velMan · 01-16-2013, 08:56 AM

Collector looks... less than optimal.

yup they are the 5zigens. I thought they only made wheels......lol

They are WAY overpriced......the website I found with it sells for $2200.....

Why would you not just go longtubes at that point?

What you're saying is it looks like the OEM collecctor.....

$2200 titanium shorties... They look just like the stock ones with pretty welds. I would say it has the usefulness of a Kinetix manifold at twice the price.

if you research it actually, they look titanium but is actually just stainless steel with a bunch of welds. their excuse is that the piping is so tight, no machine can bend it tight enough so they just weld in small incremements.

This only exacerbates my argument further. I still think a mandrel bending machine could have done the job. Props to whoever wants to buy $2200 SS headers because it has a $hit ton of welds. Now, I would spend $2200or more for Titanium long tubes
