I broke down and got a set of the updated TTI's to clear a Borgeson Box. Figured my 2" hit pretty much everything, so maybe the updated design would help. This is how they look straight out of the box... So, instead of being dented after you get them, they just do it for you now? Is this really what they call a fix? Seems a little strange that this is the solution.

Lol
Did the 2" not have the denting to clear the TB's? They have to be there to clear the TB's on my car.
That's exactly how my second set came. The first set didn't have the middle dent- I had to add it.
Anyway, I don't see those dents as a restriction- or at least not one that matters.
Have you had a chance to test fit them yet?

2" came without "customizing"...
I should have put my R5 in with custom headers and been done with it.
If I was test fitting them, I probably would not be so bitter about all this. But, when you are paying somebody else to find out that the stuff the experts made is crap... it gets old real fast. I'll have more details next week on fitment.
Luckily mounts were made to their exact K member placement specs. So, if they don't fit, I swear I'm getting on a plane to CA.

Yeah that's why I'm going to use Schumacher mounts instead of TTI mounts Seeing that crap, I am half tempted to send my car to Doug Thorley's in SoCal to get a set of headers fabbed up for Gen 3 swaps or get a custom set made, whatever is cheaper

Seriously, is the way those headers are routed the most clear path? As in there is absolutely no clearance for the tubes to go up, down, left, right and necessitate being dented? I find it hard to believe even in an A body? I'm sure it would not be as bad in B/E bodies, but damn for the money you would expect they would get it right.

They have room for the Magnum starter too. I'm gonna use an 05 ram 2500 5.7/5spd starter which also makes a bunch more room.

Good starter. Fits better than the adjustable one TTI used to recommend. Slides in and out easily. http://m.summitracing.com/parts/dcc-56029274aaI can't take credit for the find- I learned of it on FABO as well.
