Default Hooker LTs!!! ...Which Y-pipe???

I decided to go with a "Y" instead of true duals. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Could anyone enlighten me on which Y-pipe I should go with? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Is the Hooker "Y" as $hitty as it looks? <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" />

Should I get a custom Y-pipe made? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

Basicaly!... Which Y-pipe is going to breathe the best (i.e. HP/TQ) <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />

THANX! <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" />

C'mon folks!!! I need to hear some good things about Y-pipes! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Whats GOOD? Whats NOT? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

I will be installing the Hooker Longtube headers very soon(like, next weekend), and I'm not sure what to do as far as the y-pipe goes. The "Y" in question will be followed by the Hooker Cat-back!

Some suggestions please!

The Hooker ORY doesnt look anywhere near as bad in person as it does in the pics....I was skeptical at first myself, but couldnt justify paying for the Mufflex, and didnt feel like fighting an exhaust shop to bend me one...

Just get it, you'll be satisfied. Cant beat it for the money <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

my mufflex y-pipe will get here today. . . and go in tonight.

imo, the 3-4" collector will result in more hp and torque across the board.

The Hooker Y is sweet. Got it in this weekend. Fits real snug. And the dents are not that bad. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
