Default Y-Pipe question.....

Hey guys, im new to the site so sorry if this is a repost. But my question is can i install a aftermarket Y-Pipe on my LOWERED car without scraping or havent any kinds of problems. I have LM exhaust already and i heard y-pipes are a good way to gain a few extra horsepower...

It can be done, but most will probably scrape to some degree. QTP headers for example tuck up great, but their y-pipe will hang pretty low.

I know SLP will own your ground clearance, so stay away from that.

Don't even waste your money on getting just a Y-pipe if your going to keep the stock manifolds/cats. Gains are too small, and sometimes nothing at all.
