Default Who makes a 3.5" or 4" y pipe?

I was ready to pull the trigger on some tds but im having thoughts. I dont want it crazy loud inside the car with all the vibrations and I dont want the excess exhaust smell either. Plus the lower ground clearance would be another bad thing. So im thinking going with another y pipe either 3.5" or 4" to support future power the car will be making. Who makes these sizes?

Burns Stainless will. It sure won't be the cheapest way. Any good local exhaust shop should be able to make one.

"Any good local exhaust shop should be able to make one" is the universal answer to all exhaust questions lol.
I know mufflex has one but wanted to know who else may have one. Im sure Burns would make a nice piece but Im looking for something already made.

I don't think a 4" y-pipe is going to have better ground clearance than 3" duals...

A 3.5-4 y pipe still can fit partly in the tunnel vs 3" tds that cant. I would have to disagree with ya

At that point, yeah, but I'm talking up front coming off the collectors - I don't think there's really any good place to route 3"+ pipe for great ground clearance up there.

NOOOOOOO....the 2 pipes coming off the headers are 3". Then both 3"pipes merge into one 4" collector at the tunnel. The 3" duals are 3"alllllll the way back. Then depending on mufflers,and turndowns it can really give **** for clearance
