Default Y-Pipe Comparison

How do the different Y pipes compare to one another. Are they virtually the same or does one stand out from the rest? I'm going to most likely permenantly stay with high flow cats and a y-pipe so don't worry about me wasting my money on a Y and then switching to headers later (I hate California emissions <img border="0" alt="[bang head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" /> )

While we're at it, can anyone recommend high flow cats also, or maybe even a package cats/y-pipe?

I don't want a hassle with the Smog ***** either. My SLP Y-pipe is 2.50", flows into a Flowmaster Collector 3" out and into the Random Tech Catback also 3". Works and sounds great.

LG Motorsports offers a 2&3/4" Y-pipe, which bolts right up to your cats on a '00-'02 F body. It is a quality piece, also lighter than the stock Y-pipe. Best wishes. WJ. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
