I personally would not bother changing that exhaust. Some will say go true duals, but you may not like the additional sound and vibration from it.

If you change anything I'd put in a flowmaster merge since that is one of the key point's in a y-pipes flow.

Its where the 2pipes join into 1. Thats where the flowmaster merge collector goes. Check out the qtp ypipe.

Just go buy QTP's w/ HVMC and their ORY w/ flowmaster merge. No worries, no hassle, lifetime results!

A telanted exhaust shop can do it if that's something you want to pursue.
Your Borlamouth is very free flowing.
