I believe I have read a post on here where Mufflex actually works. Do a search in this forum, and you may also want to ask the company you bought them from.

Will the mufflex y-pipe fit right with the pacesetters? Does anyone know for sure and does anyone have any pics?

the mufflex y is for hooker design headers so it should fit the pacesetters, hookers, jethots, flowtechs, etc with little to no modification

as stated by barry from qtp the qtp y's will work with pacesetter, and you can get the one that has the dual cutouts already. pm or email them to make 100% sure.
