I was a little worried about possible install problems with Pypes LTH on a auto, but WOW it went great!! My son did 99.9% of the work I was the tool handler and good company..My GT is an Auto and install went very smooth about six hours, we did not even have to remove motor mounts. Headers and xpipe fit perfect no rattles and no leaks! Back to the drag strip soon hope to beat my best et 12.78 delete plates next!!

Of course it wasn't too hard because your son was doing all the work. j/k. Looks good man. I'm glad to see that the Pypes LT's fitment is on spot because I got their off road H pipe so that I can use it later on with their LT's.

I just got mine today from Brenspeed. They have been on back-order supposedly. :-\

Can't wait to hear how loud it is with the Offroad X and SLP loudmouths.

Having the lift made the install a lot easier, I did the Pypes install on my back on my 5spd car, had to remove the motor mounts, starter, and unbolt steering shaft. What gaskets did you use?

The lift helped a lot my son has a auto shop but I did it for to many years on the floor to old now!! Yes we had to remove dip stick-starter-steering shaft-we reused the factory gaskets with a little bit of the orange hi temp sealer and let it set up like rubber about 30 mins, like original better then what came in kit-plus would of had to open up the new gasket holes to small.

These look really good. I wonder how long they'll last before they start showing surface rust.

Well I guess I`ll find out hope not soon but got the kit LTH and xpipe for $487 being a senior (retired) and drag racing- watching the budget - No rust yet 2 days:roflmao: My friend has a set of very expensive SS WORKS on his 05 Roush and there is quiet a bit of surface rust on them about 2 years old I`ll let you know
