Y-Pipe Trouble I had a g2 Y-pipe with a 2.75 diameter installed from lmperformance on my 2001 ls1 trans am, a bolt on, added to the borla catback exhaust and I can hear like a stutter clatter sound when I am driving off as the rpms go higher and when I rev it up, but when I punch it goes away. It never made this noise with just the borla catback. Any suggestions? Could this be a leak in the connection of the y-pipe and the cats. I lifted the car up and when they rev it up you can see the y-pipe wiggle a little. I feel the power there when I punch it, but the stutter clatter noise is annoying makes the veh sound crappy! Could this be hazardous to the veh.
If it is no problem can you e-mail suggestions to ran_ws6_ls1@yahoo.com. I am at work all the time and I have faster access to e-mail. Thanks!

Lol..no the next day actually...I just recently reset my password since I haven't been on ls1tech since 05...and was going through old threads and remembered that headache...since then I bought the tsp 3 inch catted y pipe in 2010 and the left cat went out and an employee at tsp will remained nameless blew me off for about a year...and one year turned into two years...hated having one cat and the left straight pipe..recently bought that nice looking stainless steel 3 inch ory....but get this..they sent me two pieces of the left side. I spoke with Jake with tsp and man he was real cool...helped me out..it was a pain sending pics back and forth but he sent me the right pipe..im glad I had the old y pipe to compare it too or I probably would of been sol again...I was like I know I'm no expert but it's just assemble plug and play...It's funny now but it would of been nice to get atleast a keychain or something lol....I'm very happy with the ory especially with the stainless steel look....
