Man for the price and value I had the pacesetter and they fit perfect and bolt right up with no issues ran there y pipe and a bullet muffer off that with a turn down. check into it. Some vendors have them for around 300 bucks they work well for me.

My BBK's fit great, me & my friends installed them and we really didnt have no trouble with them at all. Ive got great ground clearance with there y pipe as well. I think $499, is a great price overall for longtubes & ory pipe.

Yes, they come with the y pipe and it is 2.5" untill the merge. Then it turns out to 3". The y pipe also has O2 bungs in it, incase you want to add cats to it sometime.
