Default what did u pay to have your y built?

looking at having a custom y built in the next couple months and curious what its been running you guys. i cant find a decent y pipe for the pacesetters as i want cats and ill prob use the flowmaster merge (if i can ever find it without a 4 inch exit) also r u guys buying the mandrels and bringing them or do most shops usually have these for this type of job? i have yet to find one that does the bends.

btw-pics are always more than welcome

I use the TSP ory, Its a true 3" all the way back, but its a tad big and likes to scrape all sorts of stuff in its path. They make the same ypipe with cats.

i dont like the tsp merge, drivers side cat location, or the fact that 70% of people who buy it have issues with it. id rather go with a custom one like jrp had in one of his threads.
