Default need help with tsp ory

well i finally did a pacesetter coated lt header install this weekend and everything went great until the y pipe. I have gmmg exhaust and a tsp ory and no matter what i did i couldnt get the pipes to match up from the headers to the exhaust i pipe. I tried for about 4 hours every combination possiable. I think im just going to take it to an exhaust shop because it seems like on of the bends is off or something. When i called the exhaust shop he said no body in my city does manderal bending and if a bend is the problem is going to have to be crush bent or w/e. will this take off that much hp.?

nm it ended up that just a pipe had to be shortened where it curved off the headers because it was too long....they welded the whole y together...man lt's, ory, and gmmg sounds sweet! I highly recomend it. It is a little loud but sounds sweet...all in all lt's are an awsome mod....lots of power

Mine didn't fit either. My drivers side header won't fit the Ypipe nor would the catback slip into place, I had to take the Y to the exhaust shop to have the Y expanded.
