Yeah the drivers side was juuust dented in enough so that the drivers side header couldn't slide into the y-pipe, but it's easily fixable

That looks familiar , don't go with a loudmouth for your catback unless you like being deafened
BTW that's a hell of a cat, wish mine would drag in headers and a Y (he just drags in mice )

dont go with a slp loudmouth style that has the bullet or muffler under the car by the drive shaft, you will hate it unless you want people to be lookin for a truck on big mud tires when they hear your car.... it sounds like glass packs on a big block which is great but not on a car... if you feel me. get somethin with the muffler sideways in the back, magnaflow sounds nice with headers and y-pipe. youre gonna hate that y-pipe too, its easy to put on but its a pain in the *** to keep it from bangin the floorboard if you hadnt already gotten the y-pipe i would tell you to stop what youre doing and get duals..

It's hard to beat the pace setters for the money! They look great. As far as a catback! GMMG kicks ***!

I just put my QTP's on the past few nights. And there dual cut out Y pipe is a PITA to get all lined up perfect. But it was worth it!

As far as a catback goes, I'm pretty sure I want to go with a hooker catback. I love the non-raspiness sound, and it's got a nice grunt to it

Yeah I am, does the pacesetter y-pipe bolt up directly to it?
