Default Patriot sidepipes check-in

Hey, would everyone with Patriot sidepipes check in and quickly tell me how you installed them?

Did everybody bend a pipe into a sharp U to go between the sidepipe and the header?

Any pics?

Thanks,
Bryan

so you are saying that once you got headers, you took them off?

why?

becouse of the 1 7/8 inlet pipe to them. i'm runnig 400 hp now. and that's is way to small for it. and after the first 10 hr round trip i took with them at 70 mph and 3700 rpm it was all i was able to hear. i was ready for them to go! but other then that i loved them!
