Default What YPipe will fit XS Stainless Headers?

I'm looking for an ORY pipe that will fit the XS Stainless (eBay) headers that were sold a few years back. As long as it's close my exhaust guy can fit it up. So I'm looking for anyone that knows what will work. I was thinking maybe LPP as it's a stainless product as well and I read somewhere that LPP used XS designs?

Thanks in advance,

-Josh

Well I got no support from this so I purchased a ORY Pacesetter ypipe. I'll let you guys know if it was a direct fit. If not I'll just have it fab fitted by my exhaust guy.

Pacesetter fits DECENT with some finagling. The clearance is minimal on the driver floor board though and you will need to perform the heater hose bang mod, mufflex mod or have motor mounts installed. Ground clearance is good and I got sealed tight with no leaks so consider it a valid solution.

yes i did the pace setter ory and XS headers a few weeks back .

i ended up cutting the collector off the driver side header putting a slight angle(down wards) and welding it up . everything fit (with love from a hammer) and lined up nice . no banging what so ever to the floor bords . and ground clearance is good . i only scrape on big speed bumps and im lowerd about 2 "

Cutting the driver collector would definitely eliminate the banging. I installed mine natively on unmodified XS longtubes with and unmodified Pacesetter Y pipe. Good info though. A good exhaust guy could cut the collector as mentioned and flange the pipe to the header so it would still be removable.
