Angry good place to have long tube headers installed at

2004 cobra with 15,000 miles. i just put on my slp x-pipe with cats because i thought it would seal better and get rid of my exhaust leak, but the leak is still there and even more noticable, my car came with jba shorty headers and factory mid pipe. im thinking about long tube headers to get rid of my leaks. i just purchased the car last month and they gave me a 6 year warranty and i want to keep it. would the dealership put the headers on, or is there a good shop in central florida that could do it. im 1 hour south of gainesville and 2 hours north of orlando. would long tubes void my warranty if someone else installs them other than the ford dealership. ive taken the x-pipe off 3 times now to try and get rid of the leaks. i dont mind paying someone to deal with the headache of installing long tubes.

Where in the exhaust is the leak coming from? If it is coming from the flange between the headers and midpipe I think there is a way to fix that. Otherwise I think you just need to tighten up the bolts as tight as you can get them.
