Default LTs and ORY pipe with stock cat-back question...

So i recently purchased some pacesetter headers and i was going to order the texas speed stainless y-pipe with the rest of the small things i need for the install. I am wondering will the this y-pipe connect straight up to my factory cat-back? Or will i need some kind of reducer so it will fit into the I-pipe? I have a 99 SS with the dual/dual stock exhaust.

it should bolt right on..but you MIGHT need to extend the I or end of Y pipe just a bit..

Alright thanks for the input guys! but yeah I'm just going to run it like this until i can afford a better catback. Do any of you guys have a video of it on your car? I'm curious to see what it will sound like.
