Supposedly pacesetter is coming out with a new y-pipe that is suppose to be better quality. Thats just the word on the street though.

i traded a buddy straight accross for his y-pipe/catback system for my duals setup. he has pacesetter headers and i have hooker headers. there was not any bending of the pipes required to make them fit.

Yes, a Hooker ORY should fit. Also, according to QTP's website, their ORY will fit Pacestters now. Not the cheapest piece, but definately quality. I ignored everyone's advice and bought Pacesetters ORY, only to have a local exhaust shop cut it up and rework it. Live and learn.

If you get the QTP ORY you also get the Flowmaster Y collector that is vastly superior in terms of flow to the Hooker @ Pacesetter designed ORY's where its simply two pipes welded together where the exhaust gasses collide thus slowing down velocity. The Flowmaster Y is a true collector and the gasses don't collide they each have their own seperate tube, then they are channeled into the collector straight into the I pipe. Just taking a look at one should tell you it will flow alot better. The downside is that it's more expensive than most ORY's on the market.
