just ordered a set of long tube pacesetter headers, my question is should i go and buy the y pipe or just let the machanic run straits? is there a diff and if there is what is it, thanks

 

Go with a Y. It will help more than straights with Exhaust Scavenging

 

i was going to order the y pipe but the guy at the exhaust shop said it would restrict more air than straits, so i figured i would get some opinions.

 

Sounds like your average grease monkey exhaust shop. I dont mean that to be degrading. My exhaust guy is exactly like that. Good dude, just doesnt know anything about real performance.

The 3inch ORY with a 3 inch single exhaust will be more then enough for most bolton trucks.

 

Where are you guys buying your 3" ORY, I need to order one as well

 

3 inch single is plenty. I run duals jus because I feel I'm not trying to force all that exhaust down one pipe. I do have an xpipe with dual 2 1/2inch. Jus my 2cents. Do what u want neither setup is a bad setup! Good luck bud!

 

theres an avertisment to the right "speed engineering" they have all there stuff on sale right now, just bought a 3" ory pipe and e-cutout. Just waiting on it to come in now

 

no doubt about that he's hard headed, but he does great work

 

An ory is technically "straits". It is straight pipe coming off the headers into a y merge, unless of course he is talking about running true duals off the headers with straight pipes. If that's the case slap him in the face.

 

ye thats what i meant, true duels, my fault. Is that a bad idea, doesnt matter now already ordered what i wanted.
