Default which y pipe?

going to order the pacesetter long tube package from TSP here soon and seen that you can get the pacesetter ypipe or the TSP pipe. Have you guys experienced a better quality between the two?

The Pacesetter ORY will give more ground clearance due to the spots where it is flattened slightly. The TSP pipe will give you a bit less restriction based on it being tubular throughout, either one will work, just depends on your personal preference.

I used to have a Texas Speed off-road y-pipe with QTP LTs, personally thought it was garbage, the merge was horrible and I had lots of rasp. I believe Texas speed has recently redesigned their y-pipe with a better merge. In any case... I have since changed my entire setup to ARH Longtubes with catted y-pipe and have not looked back.

i vote TSP if you are on a budget and dont feel like dropping an arm and a leg for arh. i just bought their TSP's new catted y and it has amazing fitment and the new merge is well designed. i switched to a ypipe/ magnaflow cb from a td exhaust and noticed no loss in SOP and it still sounds good too.

Custom. No worries about whether it will fit or not.
