y-pipe screwup, can you find it?
It took me a real long time to figure it out, and i'll admit, I'm sure its even harder looking at a picture, but does anyone here think they can see the mistake my shop guy made? Clue, he couldnt get the driver side cat correct and had to order an extra piece to make it all work. But which mistake led him down that road?

Go Grimes! 7 min after i post and you practically have it. So explain this to me, why would Texas-speed make something shaped like a "T" rather than a "Y"? Heres a pic from texas speed of their product properly installed

It sounds awesome. No rasp, no rattle, not even when i let off the gas. I'm starting to even like the placement, except for the way they feed into the I pipe. You guys think I should just replace that Y piece? or would it be really hard to find the right angles to make that work? I do have MTI racing located 3 miles away, should they just fix it? They are a sponsor here and are the people doing my tune this week or next week...
