Default I need an X-pipe that will fit these headers!

I bought these on ebay and was told they are TPiS, but I thought the TPiS had a slip fit collector. Anyway where can I get an offroad X-pipe that will bolt up to this flange?

If it was mine I would just find the best local performance muffler,etc. to fab one up and be done with it. Need to clean that flange up first!

You won't find anything that will bolt-up right after the collectors--You can buy C5 specific x-pipes but they are expensive( $5-600) and they fit in just before the rear axle-----I would buy just a universal 2 1/2" magniflow or any universal style brand from Jegs-Summit--The outlets are close together and fit in right behind the cats--They are about 12" long and the outlets are about 6" apart----Easy weld in job foe any muffller shop--- I bought mine --a 2 1/2" for $60 and had it welded in for $40--Love the sound !!!

Hey there viper I just bought a set of TPIS from craigslist and they look just like those but they do have a slip on collector. Wonder if the year they where made makes a differance on the collector. Best of luck. Do you think they will need the 02 sensor extensions? Also what gaskets will you use? Still debating these things for mine.
