You should be able to get it to fit. Probably cheaper to bring it to a muffler shop (midas, Mienike) & let them put the Y on, than to buy a new Y-pipe. If you have the headers installed. Saves down time on the car too.

Check it out, you might be suprised. They can cut and weld on pieces if needed. Probably cost less that $100.
