Default Pacesetter LTs, Hooker ORY?

Are these compatible? Also, how is the ground clearance on a setup like this? I dont have a problem taking a hammer to the car to get some extra clearance if need be, but I certainly dont want a banging y-pipe or a y-pipe that sits too low and kils my clearance (as the car is already lowered).

Why not just get the pace setter ORY? I have the pace setter LTs, ORY and hooker cat back...not to happy with it, cats will make it sound alot better IMO

Because I can get a buddy's old Hooker ORY for the whopping price of FREE! so I'd like to go that route if possible. Its had a little of the y-pipe cut off after the headers, so I'm thinking instead of dealing with O2 sims or deleting the rear codes as I have to deal with emissions (and I also dont like drone), having a shop put some CarSound cats in and get it ready to mate up to the headers. Going that route would still be MUCH cheaper than getting a new ORY or catted Y, and I'd get exactly what I want (it isn't true duals out the back with Sweet Thunder mufflers, but with a y-pipe setup, its the best IMO).

Maybe I'm crazy but I don't think that the Hooker Y will fit PaceSetters. The Hooker does fit the JetHot LTs if I'm not mistaken.

as long as your car is not lowered you'll be fine. I have the Eibach pro kit on my 01 with Pacesetters and the TSP ORY and have only 2-1/2" of clearance at the lowest point of the Y. The headers will tuck up nicely no problems there.

Kooks and QTP are the same design, but apparently their ORY isn't interchangable.
