Default Y pipe/cats with dual cutouts

I want to put on hooker LT's, dual electric cutouts, high flow cats and Y pipe; leaving the factory slp dual dual exhaust. How can I get a Y pipe to work with this set up? Does it need to be custom made or should I just shorten a Y pipe w/cats combo to make room for the cutouts. Also how do you wire QTP cutout? Thanks

You could cut out sections of the y, then weld in the cutouts where you wanted them.

thats a lot of parts on a y pipe (2 cats and 2 cutouts)

You would have to have it custom made.

1 idea would be to use the random tech metallic cats. They are very very very small. But even with that you might still have some clearance/banging issues.

Give it a shot and tell us what happens

Can the cutouts be bolted right on to the lt's? Or would I be better off to just do one electric cutout where the Y-pipe connects to the exhaust? With high flow rt cats will the location matter for power or sound? Thanks for the help
