Default Better y for Pacesetters?

TSP or pacesetter ORY? Clearance issues or no? By-un sells pacesetter y and Texas Speed a TSP.

Either is fine. I have the TSP catted Y and the fitment is great so I can only imagine their ORY is just as good. Either way, I dont think you could go wrong whichever one you choose.

My TSP ORY is pretty good. It does hang a little low on the drivers side (especially because my car is lowered)but it wouldn't be a problem on a stock height car. I am going to do a little cutting and reshaping to get some more clearance on that side.

I've got the Pacesetter offroad Y in my car. It tucks up very well. Probably the best clearance you can get in a y pipe. The drivers side is oval which helps clearance. It comes with an attached bracket to fit it to the passenger side bolt in hangar off the trans tailshaft. The merge also needs additional grinding for the best flow. Overall, I'm very pleased with the fit of the Pacesetter y.

Pacesetter ORY seems to give you lots of ground clearance due to it's slightly crushed section, which won't impede flow too much. IMO it's worth it when the other option is plowing up the freeway.

No clearance problems with my Pacesetter ORY. Might even be better than stock clearance

I like my Pacesetter ORY, it does tuck VERY nice, almost too nice. I was a little pissed to see it had some crushes in it because I didnt realize it did until I got it, but I honestly doubt its robbing me much if any power.

Here are some pics of my clearance. You would probably add about 1/4" onto that if it were the TSP ORY because it is 3" throughout.
