Just put on set of frpp stingers and so far I like the sound but I am having a little problem. The passenger side went on great and does not leak. The driver side is my problem I can not get it to stop leaking a little. I have tried rotating the clip and adjusting it several times with no luck. What is the trick or should I just go to the exhaust shop and get it welded on. There is no way the clamp can get any tighter.

Did you look at the pipe before you put it on? It could be bent slightly and that could be causing the leak. If it is not that you can put some orange sealant on the pipe.

It is orange silicone specifically for exhaust leaks.

make sure you've got it tight enough. it takes quite a bit to get it leak free.

Unless you're planning to change out your exhaust a lot, I have always welded - clamps are ghetto imo
