Default NEW FLP'S

It was worth the wait. After my embarrassing 'accident' with the tpis headers, I was forced to upgrade and was very happy with the service from LAPD in getting them to me so fast...hehe. Thanks Shawn. Anyway, the headers were so good that there was a very noticeable improvement to my modded 2001 c5 over the tpis. Most noticeable was the torque. I highly reccomend them.

They look fine and have very good welds. (yes I looked closely) It would appear things are fixed along those lines. :auto:

:iagree:
I also had TPIS on my car and they were off in a month
Went to to Mitch at FLP
No exhaust leaks 100% true bolt up, easy removal of cats (for off road racing :D )
Worst investment i made were those TPIS headers, nothing but an embarrasing headache of an exhaust leak.

I also felt a SOTP feeling after the FLP install even though bother were LT's the FLP's moved the revs up a little faster!!! :cheers:
