TSP Headers

Question everyone, do the Texas speed headers with hi flow cats mount to the stock x pipe? Thanks again! I tried looking all over google but it only brings me to sales pages

They "mount" in a way that you need to do some snipping on the stock x-pipe.
I'm yet to install mine, but when I called to check, I was told that with high flow cats, you're still required to cut and "mate".

1. Mark exhaust pipe 1 ¾ ” in front of 90° exhaust bend on left and right sides.
2. Remove cat flange connection to OEM exhaust. – 15mm
3. Modify OEM mid-pipes to mate TSP exhaust.
a. Cutting is required on the proper marked pipes.
4. Clean up cutting burrs on exhaust with file or dremel.

Keloid is correct, you need to follow the posted instructions. I have them on my car, be advised there are no O2 bungs in the catted connection pipes. If you want to have your downstream O2 sensors you can get the X pipe from TSP or make your own. This is what I have on my car, not sure if this is what part you are referring to.

I run 2' TSP Headers. I would highly recommend relocating the wiring harness next to the headers on the Passenger Side. Myself, and other people from the forum have melted this harness, causing fuses to blow and exterior lighting issues. Simply zip-tie the harness back and out of the way. Can provide you a photo if needed.

What's the downside to not having the downstream O2 sensors?

I would not mind that photo as I will be installing mine in the near future when they get back from being coated.

The wiring harness you that behind the coolant reservoir and zip tie out of the way. Unfortunately I don't have a pic from my install.
