I'm having mine fab'd up friday and taking my TSP duals off. Pacesetter headers, magnaflow 59959 cats, flowmaster merge. Also having v-clamp welded on at the headers and after the merge. Magnaflow catback put on as well. I can't wait.

ill snap a picture and post it in a few minutes. the y pipe comes in pieces; the 2 cats themselves and then 4 or 5 pipes that need to be clamped or welded together. i had my headers/y pipe installed by a non-sponser shop familiar with fbodies. they claimed they tried rotating each section of pipe to try and get the best possible ground clearance. i even took a good look myself; theres no way you can make it better. i wouldnt say its a horrible with ground clearance, but if your lowered, your in for some problems.
pics are to come within the hour....

pic one- as you can see, the exhaust only clears 2/3 of a soda can.
pic two- after the collector on the headers, the y pipe MUST make a 1 to 2 inch dip because of the design of the chassis.
i forgot to take a pic of this, but if you STAND 15 feet away from the car, you can actually see the y pipe slinging downwards

Our TSP y-pipe has been redesigned. The pics shown are of our old design. We have changed over to a bullet-style cat that will allow for even better ground clearance, and the fitment has been improved upon as well. I've posted a few pics for everyone to check out. The new design is in stock and ready to ship!

Slayer your the man for posting the pics, thanks for that man.
Trevor, im not sure if im getting the new one or the old one...guess ill see when it gets here. Bad thing is is that I didnt get it from you guys, got it somewhere else b/c it was cheaper before shipping. So im sure its the older design, thanks for posting the pics of the new design though...rub it in why dont ya! haha, just kidding.

Both designs will clear pretty good with a good install. Take your time putting it together before tightening the clamps & you'll have a nice tight install! The new cay y pipe has better clearance with our new high flow small diameter cat!
