Default Flowmaster Catback

I was curious about the catback with hooker headers but will I need a custom y pipe or the slp y pipe with this setup? Right now I just have a flowmaster muffler not sure what exactly as it was purchased with the car. Thanks for any advice and tips!

The muffler is a 80 Series if its a typical 4th gen setup. I used to have the American Thunder system.

The muffler you have on your car now will sound very good with headers, however it will hold your car back from making power. Flowmaster mufflers do not flow very well.

For the y-pipe you will need to buy one that will fit Hooker headers, I think that Texas Speed sells them
