possible, but stock manifolds will work much much better.

Ya, if they're already on there, leave em...they won't hurt too much. LT's dissipate heat too much verses the stock manifolds. Wrap the exhaust though and you may not have much of a difference.

I would advise to take them off, especially with SLPs. I had SLPs on my car. The difference with stock manifolds vs the SLPs was big with the stock manifolds providing much faster spool.

So leave the factory y-pipe as well, I am thinking about taking my longtubes off and putting my stack manis back on just lost the y-pipe.
