Very heavy duty in comparison to the old Duralasts I had to buy in a pinch. They discolored and started to crack in just a month so if you have cheap ignition wires then yea I'd recommend sleeves.

My current ignition wires are very thick and short so I haven't seen any premature wear.

Thanks for the heads up

Regarding the bent collector tube. I seem to recall seeing a tool at a muffler shop that looked like a metal cone they could just put it in your bent collector and whack it with a 4# sledge and it would most likely make the tube 100% round again (well 98%).

I'm sure with that method included there are a lot of viable fixes for that issue. I didn't even mess with it, didn't seem bad enough to be that bothersome. It would be nice if they would package it more securely to prevent that from happening though, assuming that happened during transit. They were placed neatly in the box inside plastic sleeves, no insulation whatsoever. Some bubble wrap or packing peanuts would at least help a bit, if not investing into some Styrofoam molds to help prevent damage haha.

Is there anyway to renew your photos? The links are broken. Also what size clamps do I need to connect the off road pipes to my stock cat back? 2.5” right? Also did anybody use spark plug wire sleeves?

I used sleeves, not absolutely necessary but they can help. 3" to the header, 2.5" to the exhaust. This is a 4 year old post...
