Default New Custom Y-pipe

Well getting my car ready to go back together with the new motor and some more boost...shooting to get the fastest spool i can with my sts kit. Well with the motor out of the car there was no real way to have a ypipe made and assure it would fit as good as i wanted it to.....so a buddy of mine was nice enough to let me use his car...we took his car to the exhaust shop and had them make a y-pipe

here are a few pics, as you can see it bolts to the stock manifolds and is 2 1/2" pipe all the way back to the stock I-pipe. Its made with a Flowmaster y-pipe. There is no more crushed section and the rear o'2 were removed. It is being painted with dei header paint, then will be wrapped, then the wrap will be painted. I will post pics of the progress of that as it comes along. Sorry this first pic is a cell phone pic it was all i had to use while the car was up on the rack.
