For the $ they are good, but if you dont mind spending more check out the arh headers, the fit is much better and they dont leak! Plus the 1 7/8 is nice too

my pacesetter ceramic 1 3/4 ones never leaked. i now have tsp 1 7/8s and they dont leak either. i always use factory oem gaskets with them to ensure good seal.

Thanks for the replies so far! I will look into these more. I'd love to stay around the $500 range but I also want something good for my setup

As mentioned above, go with OEM exhaust gaskets for the best seal!
