TSP 1 7/8" headers to Borla 60607

I have a Borla 60607 X-pipe connected to a Borla Atak axleback. Looking to pick up a set of headers but I can't really find any information on whether any sets would bolt right up to the 60607 or if some extra pipe would be necessary. Appreciate any input you guys might have

As you approach the front of the car Borla's systems turn to cut and clamp like everyone elses. I've cut and clamp Borla 2 and 3/4 stuff to the OEM exhaust as well as headers with only minor fab or expand a pipe here or there issues. Since you are using the OEM pipes between the header and the 60607 X, I don't see any issues at all.

You're gonna need to do some minor fab work regardless.

so not a "bolt-on", but a cut and clamp / minor fab. Headers are not a bolt on either, AFAIK all require cut and clamp to OEM system. All require special pipes from the header to whatever aftermarket solution. Borla does sell header to their two intermediate pipes at 2 and 3/4" You would be buying both sets of pipes: 2 header to intermediate, 2 intermediate to X

I would say using the OEM between the header and your X is a 3/10 job in terms of difficulty. It ain't a bolt-on, it ain't a custom built system. It is a cut and clamp, might need some fab etc.

I have the 60608 2and 3/4 pipe in a complete OEM system. I have also run this with headers. This pipe is equivalent to the intermediate pipes above. Minor fab issue mainly because the 60608 was NOT made for the OEM system period. That was a 4/10 job. Headers themselves with the cut and clamp are a 2/10 job.
