Will OBX LT's + ROR = deafness?

I'll have to say this, the OBX kit went in easier on the passenger side than we thought, no removing the starter or jacking up of the motor or any of that. Once we figured out which bolts to start first it went in pretty easily, it just took us a while to get to that point. :o
As for the leak you guys hear I honestly don't think it's the manifold since I torqued the bolts down pretty good. It may be from the collector, and I hope so because it's fairly easy to get to.
I think I'll have the motivation to check it out tomorrow. :o
Can't stop listening to Patrick's videos though.
I'll get some more videos up after I get the leak solved.

Yea the OBX fit is perfect. They go in far easier then the manifolds come out. I reused the stock studs / nuts so it took me a little while to figure out what studs I had to actually remove to get the manifold out on the passanger side. I rechecked the nuts a few times when Ive had my truck in the air and I have yet to actually tighten any of them. Locking bolts you should have zero problems too. After I drove my truck for a while I had to retighten the collectors as they adjust from the heat. I actually had one of the collector bolts break on me (I think I overtighted with my 3/8 impact and it gave over time). Other then that my system leaked bad until I replaced all the OBX clamps with welds. Then like I said I retorqued the collectors and had zero issues.
