I purchased 2" TSP headers this winter - and for me, I had to dent two tubes on the driver's side in order to not touch the steering shaft (they cleared the bolt head just fine - these are tubes closer to the firewall from there) and think the way they connect to the off-road pipes with the ball / socket / radius clamps is absolute garbage (the clamps bottom out on each other and dont create much of a seal).

Im about ready to cut off the radius part on the end of the collector and have a piece of strait 3" welded in, kind of how the SW headers are. That or I am going to weld in spring tabs and use springs kind of like a snowmobile / dirt bike exhaust.

I would say the Speed Engineering headers are no worse than the TSP ones and may have a better collector connection. At least the money you save on the headers you can use at the exhaust shop. I ended up spending a lot of time and money on the TSP headers getting them to function somewhat decent - wish I would have bought stainless works
