Did anyone else make a y-pipe on the cheap?

 

I have a Hooker Y-pipe sitting in my garage that I did not use during my header install. It is 3in.... It would take a little modifiying to fint your truck.

 

get a Flowmaster or Pacesetter y-pipe kit, . . . take that to a muffler shop, and have it welded and flanged together

 

or just go open headers

 

you got yours on yet punk?

 

well no one sells a 2.5" y pipe in a kit so i'm just going to keep hunting until i find a muffler shop that bends the rules or some really cheap hiflow cats. thanks for the input though

 

Any body else have a issue with the the drivers side header touching the frame? Mine just barley hits. Do you think it will mess anything up if I tweak it over about a 1/4 inch or so with a pry bar?

 

use the prybar. it wont hurt. you can bend it a couple inches

 

yeah mine did and I just lightly bent it out and put a piece of hear wrap on the frame

 

so what kind of power gains have you guys seen compared to the other headers available? fitment seems to be good. I want to get some longtubes for my 04 6L and am wondering what will give me the best gains.
