Red face which y to buy???????

hey guys after thinking about whats my next big mod im going with some coated pacesetters and a off road y pipe to mate up to my custome lm2 exhaust.
i was going to order the pacesetter y but i wondering on how it fits and how the clearance is because my car is lowered a little.
should i go with the pacesetter or the tsp or other?

I got a custom one made, I bought a Flowmaster Scavenger Y collector 3"-3.5". Had my local shop fab me one.

I highly suggest to do as BuBbABFP did. I bought a pre-made y-pipe only to pay even more to have it custom fit with a flowmaster merge.

I concur! I have the Pacesetter y and hate it. It bangs and makes for a crappy exhaust note. Spend the few extra bucks for a custom one with the Flowmaster merge. It will complement your LM nicely and make a bit more power.

The Pacesetter y pipe makes for great clearance and the banging can be compensated for. As far as the exhaust note, a nice merge collector like the flowmaster would be pretty inexpensive to have welded in.

QTP has a very nice y with the flowmaster style merge collector. give us a ring and we can hook you up with the headers and y
