I'm not sure on that, but if you go with that ORY get a good merge pipe to go with it, because the Pacesetter one sucks bad lol

I already have all the pace setter stuff. The old rusted up pace setter headers will be pulled out tomorrow morning and I was planning on connecting the kooks up to the pace setter ORY that is already installed on the car. I was just hoping that someone already attempted this switching over from pace setters to something else.

Right I understand that, i'm just saying the merge on that ORY sucks bad, and you should add a Flowmaster merge or better if you want maximum power and sound. That's all

The pacesetter y pipe is a joke. I had one a while ago that I cut apart to see how good the merge was inside. Where the two pipes join together there was a 2.25" hole cut into the one pipe for the other pipe to be able to flow into that one (if that makes sense). It really is a garbage setup. If I were you, I would look into having a flowmaster or vibrant merge welded on it to fix the restriction if you insist on using that pipe.

Thanks, I'm definitely going to do this, but in the mean time I need my car up and running!

For those inquiring minds I was able to make the Kooks headers fit the pace setter y-pipe.
