ORY or catted Y? I've had both of theirs and neither one of them were the best fitting Y, but they have the flowmaster merge which is a nice peice. Neither one of them offer the BEST ground clearance either....

i have the ory. only big problem was that the merge/reducer clamp didn't tighten down enough and it rattled bad. i had that welded up and haven't had any problems since. the drivers side hangs a bit low but i can fix that myself.

Thumbs up

It's a GREAT Y pipe, mine went in quite easily after following the instructions and it fits very well. Can't beat the flow of this thing with it's 3" mandrel bends and Flowmaster merge.

I have the QTP headers and Y pipe ORY, and it fits like a glove. I do have some clearnace issues on the drivers side, but I have stock ride height so it never hits. I would have to massage it a bit to fit tighter when I get enough cash to lower this puppy a bit......with a borla adjustable muffler......it sounds wicked......
