We used a Pacesetter ORY mated to Jet Hot LT's on my bro's 02 SS, without much trouble. I know the Hooker ORY's are the same as the Jet Hot ORY's, so I wouldn't see why you couldn't mate a Hooker ORY to Pacesetter LT's.

A friend of mine purchased the Texas Speed Y pipe to go along with his pacesetter headers. He said it fitted nicely, and has had no problems with it.

I have a KOOKS ORY on my pacesetters. was a bit of a pain to mate it up, but it does fit. Have to use the heater hose mod to keep it from banging. I was going to get the pacesetter ORY but the store was out of them and gave me a deal on the KOOKS instead. It is a tad leaky at the header collectors, but not bad, I would like to get some flanges welded up between the Y and headers to make it seal a bit better and easier to remove when swapping parts. It is a very nice piece though, and the only one I've done

I appreciate the info.

I found a catted-y locally, he specified that it was stainless, but did not specify a brand.
I asked him if it would mate up to some PaceSetter LTs and he said the following:

I believe he was running KOOKS headers & Corsa catback. Should this Y that he was running line up to the PaceSetter LTs? What do you guys think?

Its hard to say yes or no without knowing what brand it is and seeing if someone has actually done it and been successful, but, Im going out on a limb and saying that most of the big name aftermarket brands line up pretty close to one another as far as header outlets and y pipe alignments. I also believe most, if not all long tubes have the slip fit collectors. good luck

If it doesn't work out, a custom ORY with a flowmaster merge flows much better IMO.

I'd go with an ORY, but she needs to pass NJ Inspection.
