id just get that pacesetter y pipe...cost wise it would probably work out evenly with whatever your exhaust shop can fab up, plus its all mandrel bends. IDK if your local shop has a mandrel tubing bender but the shops around here dont and i hate it!!

Oh ****, I thought that they were at least perforated in the middle like resonators, that is a crackup! I may look into those some day...BTW, I'm running my StainlessWorks 2.5" into 3" catted y-pipe with my current set up and I plan to carry it over when I do my LQ9, except I plan to ditch the "Y" for an "X" and go true 2.5" dual dumped either before or after the muffler. I may eventually get some of those "cats" that you linked to I wish that I had room for 3" collectors and 3" to 2.5" reducers, but I need cats for visual inspection here in Jersey.
