The lack of response here should be telling. I’ve not used them, so this is just my opinion— I’ve read some people have had no problem other than Minuit fit issues, and I’ve also read real horror stories (you’ve probably already found the story of the fella that literally had to re-run the pipes.
i got a set of TPiS headers used (guy was parting out a track car) for a trade— about $500 value— and I love them. New top of the line headers are stupid expensive. But if you bide your time, keep your eyes open here and FB, I bet you can get a first rate set of long tubes for less than those Phab’s cost.
it’s the inverse power of time is money😉
hope that helps

I can't comment on the fit but I can say that looking at them it looks like getting to the plugs could be a nightmare. I have a melrose setup that basically dropped in and those phab look a little bulkier. Not having them in my hand I can't say anything but there isn't a ton of room in the engine bay... I'm curious to see how they fit. May be a decent "inexpensive" option for some folks... keep us updated.

they fit fine actually just had to move alternator bracket a little, my main gripe is that now my car just randomly stalls but i changed from normal to ltcc setup. I got c41 codes and so I'm sending the ecm for a rebuild
