Which Y-pipe with QTP headers? Ive pretty much made a solid decision on QTP headers, but the general consensus on their Y seems to be that it blows. I was going to get their catted Y, but now I'm looking for other options. What will bolt up to the QTPs? Ive seen it posted that the kooks Y is nice, but also that it will and will not fit the QTP headers. Any and all help/comments are appreciated.
Oh and whats the Flowmaster merge I keep hearing about, thats not the HVMC option is it?

I would like to know as well because I am either going to go with QTP and maybe the cutout ORY or I am going to go with Kooks. My car isn't lowered and most likely won't be for a while.

Yeah it has to be the cats that are setting the price so high. Look at it from this point though. If they are doing the custom Y then you should get a good fit and it should tuck up nice

It blows? It blows air like no other Y-pipe (save for the Mufflex Y-pipe of similar design). Go ahead and purchase an inferior Y-pipe from another company. I only lost 2rwhp thru the catback on my QTP Dual Elec. Y-pipe setup. The design, using the Flowmaster Scavenger Merge Collector flows as well as many TD setups.

Qtp And Kooks Are The Same In All Areas But The Collector Qtp For Some Reason As A Better One Why I Really Don't Know. But...........the Y-pipe From Kooks Is Said To Flow Better I Just Order The Whole Set Up For My Car After Seeing Results Of Kooks On A Friends Car. 1 3/4 S.s. Long Tubes. W/ Cats And Y-pipe. Dont Forget O2 Sensor Extensions.
