Default Y-Pipe For Vert

Well since my Jet-Hot Cats suck. I am looking to replace my Y.

What fits with cats under our verts?

No, not at the moment. I could snap you some tomorrow after work though. I've yet to bottom out on anything. I'm very pleased.

Off topic, were you and your car ever featured in GMHTP?

If you have the time, that would be great. Oh and will that Y work with other headers??

Nope, but that would be cool.

I had the TSP installed on mine. I haven't gotten to drive it yet, I've been waiting on my tensioner bracket which finally came in yesterday. I'll try to get some pictures while it's up on the lift today.

The driveshaft is hanging down pretty low in these pictures. If the car was on the ground you would have alot more clearance.

It came in 5 pieces, so I'm sure there is some adjustment on it. Tough call.
