Sorry to hear that, what a pain. Would you mind posting some photos for our benefit? Particularly the merge collector if possible.

The welds look ok from the outside, ground them flat. The merge collector is extremely average, definitely not the best. They look more like mid length than long tubes to me? Maybe it is the angle. Regardless you should get some pretty good gains. Hopefully they install ok.

Yeah they midlength headers look similar to kleeman/eurocharged. Has company in NZ sell me kleemann midlength marketed as long tube.. still make good power though!
