Default Determine Proper ORY For Stock Manifolds

I have been searching and searching for the proper ORY that connects to the stock manifolds on an '01 TA. So far I have found that the Dynomax are junk, MAC's are for 98-99, SLP's connect to the CAT's and everything else appears to connect to headers. The only ones I have found, so far, are the Stainless Works.

Any reviews of this ORY?
Suggestions on other brands who make a ORY for stock manifolds?

Thanks in advance.

Why not just have a y pipe made at your local exhaust shop? Wont take long and could be made to fit perfect and flow better than stock plus your choice of catback.

That is an option as well although it would be considered illegal to remove cats by the exhaust shop.

For about $75 more than the S.W. ORY-pipe, you can get a set of BBK LT headers and ORY-pipe, and they're a easy install, an they tuck up really good!

I use the SLP Y with Mufflex tubes, which is offroady
enough. This would cost you more, probably, than a
Bassani or Mac or whatever, if you paid retail. I buy
this kind of stuff used, if it's stainless and has no
moving parts then why not?

The good thing about this setup is, if you get inspected
or simply nailed by an overzealous trooper, you can
easily put cats back on when you are done "testing".

as ugly as it looks the stock y pipe flows well enough with manifolds.

The slp would be my choice but i just cant see dropping 200 bucks on a y pipe that bolts to factory manifolds

No point in doing this. Theirs no power benefit from it. Headers is where you gain power at.

In that case will stay with the stocker for the time being. Passenger side CAT is bad though. Been running the O2 tricker so no code.

None of the vendors responded back to my email inquiring if they have the SW ORY in stock so that is a good indication to skip on it.

Good call, I ran the SW 2.5" O/R Y on my '00 SS with a Magnaflow catback for a while, sounded mean but if I were to do it again I would've just saved a bit more cash for LT's.
