Yeah I thought about using a band clamp but thought it would twist downward over time. It doesn't look bad at all welded on there. I can get pics if anyone is interested.

Band-aid. I tried the Mufflex Bumpstop on a TSP catted Y... it worked, but it wasn't a good fix. Ploy mounts, while they are a pain in the ***, are VERY worth it.

I went with the TSP ORY, and their 'new design', its supposed to have better fitment than the old one. I'll let you know my thoughts on it once its on.

I just got the "new" TSP ORY and looks like a way better merge style y. I'll post up a pic if I get a chance. Hopefully it fits as good as it looks

I'm interested in seeing this. I had their ORY and I'd like to see the difference.

I might be getting a set of stainless hooker headers very soon, and was wondering if their Y pipe is any good?

Is that Tsp's new y pipe, not a custom job? If so, I may have to pick up one of those to replace my Kook's.

Yup just got it in the mail from TSP yesterday. I had read on one of the merge threads that TSP was working on a new design, so when I ordered my headers and ory I ordered from them in hopes I would get the new design. Sure enough I did

That merge looks to be a big improvement over the last. Post up how the ground clearance is!

I would love for someone to try this merge. It's stainless. I never understood why I have stainless headers and a shitty steel y pipe

I was told this was the new Pacesetter design on my car, but I can't see the same one on their website. It looks more like the TSP posted above

HoLLo that looks juts like my TSP ory. Is that in fact a pacesetter? How does yours tuck up on the driver side, mine hangs a little low (i'm going to try and play with it today to see if I can't get it up tighter).

I was TOLD it was a Pacesetter, but can't verify that. It looks more like the TSP, like I said. The driver side does hang down a little low. If you have any good ideas to tuck it better let me know!
