won't have any problems if you install it right and you don't bottom it out on anything while traveling at a decent speed.

As long as they are put on correctly you will have no issue...

yes they do leak. I have seen many of posts... most people dont put the gasket back on. These cars have an actual exhaust manifold to mid gasket on them. You can get them through ford, but i know SLP comes with it. I installed 2 slp mid pipes and i thought they were thought out well and sound nice. With stock catback even. One on a mach and on a bullitt..

alot of the problems come from people using the stock studs on the drivers side manifold which cause alot of leaks. Make sure you pull those out and get some grade 8 bolts with nuts to put on that side. By the way have fun getting those out, have to heat them up pretty good

You should be able to get them in most auto parts stores I would think...

I use the stock studs and have no issues with mine...
