I have an SLP X pipe and I want to get some long tube headers. The SLP pipes says only the SLP headers will fit. Does anyone else have the X pipe with a different brand headers? I don;t want to pay $850 for SLP headers.

SLP long tube headers is about the only way you can go.

I know people have mixed and matched when it comes to headers and mid pipes, but i wouldn't do it. You never know...it could be a real pita just because you wanted to save a couple of bucks. Why take that chance?

You could buy the SLP headers used, or sell the x pipe, and by another brand x with matching headers.

Well, I have Pacesetter shortie headers and they fit fine. Of course, I'm a different year/model, but mine have the flared opening at the collector flange. I'm willing to bet you can mix/match, as well. They listed that mine work with either shortie or long tube, but that would eliminate the flared flange downpipe, so maybe that's where you'd run into an issue. I'd have to see what your X looks like up front, I guess. My two cents here...

Yea ive heard SLP doesn't work well w/ other brands. Looks like u need to start lookin for a deal lol.

It looks like every other X-pipe that SLP makes for the New Edge. The only LT's you ca use are SLP.

SLP makes an X pipe for shorty headers and L/T headers, so which one do you have? Pic?

gunpig0313

It's the same thing. It's a three pice mid pipe comes with down pipe for shortie's the LT's connect to the cat's or race pipe, and then you have the X section.

That's actually a nice feature! Did not know that

i have heard of the slp x fitting with other brand lt's, such as bbk. but i honestly would get a midpipe that was meant for the specific headers. i had a slp x, and got a vrs x that was supposedly a match my mac headers. i still had to manhandle it to get it to fit.
