what headers/catted y to go with? first option would be jet hot lts and jet hot catted y.
second option would be jet hots with qtp y pipe.
the third and most unlikely option would be a full qtp header and y pipe combo, i really like the setup but its not really cost effective as i am a full time college student.
any good or bad feedback on the jet hot y?
how much do u think random tech would charge for a custom catted y?

I am running the Jet Hot Longtubes with a QTP Catted Y. The longtubes have held up great and the QTP Y IMO is the best on the market. 3" piping with 3" Magnaflow Cats into a 4"-3" Flowmaster merge collector. However the Y is expensive and you might be able to have a good muffler shop do a custom Y with the same parts for cheaper. Maybe. Steer clear of the JH Catted Y, the cats they use are a known power robber compared to others. I understand about the college budget thing. I'm in the same position.

Its not a bad idea.. but let me tell you my story just so you know..
I had Jethots... their fitment is ok.. i did have to grind part of the Kmember and bend a support under the floor... they were great... but they started to develop surface rust in a few months and the coating started to peel off...
i took them out and sold them..
i now have a set of QTPs and they rock. stainless wont rust
and their Y has a true merge collector thats good for some extra power...
good luck with your selection.. headers are a great mod.. i remember the first day i got headers... i couldnt stop revving the car and smiling

It's worth the wait if you need more time to save for the QTP headers with QTP Y pipe, trust us on this.
