When professioanlly installed there is not problem. It is a little tricky to assemble. Doing it on a lift is a must. Mine fits great. I would not install it on your back though.

The drivers side ground clearance is not great. I have also had a problem with it being leaky.

QTP ory here, hopefully soon QTP headers. I was able to get my ORY installed on my back. It was a bit of a pain to assemble, but all worked out. I have really not had any leaks. I mainly went with it because of the merge collector.

My QTP sucked big time... The first pipe on the drivers side had a funny angle, Installed i almost didn´t get any groundclearence, I had to cut and weld it up to be able to drive the car. I contacted QTP about this but they said it was my own fault, Then i tried to buy the pipes i needed but they wouldn´t sell them. Soo now i am looking for a new y-pipe since i cant get spare parts i need.

if you buy a QTP (despite the lack of groundclearence) pray that the one you recieve not is defect because the customer service at QTP will only laugh at you

Well, I had little issue with my QTP ory and jet hot headers. However, now that I am installing the QTP LT headers I am realizing their y pipe sucks. The drivers side dips down pretty low (not sure how to fix that yet) and the passenger side I can't get the damn y pipe to go on the header

I´m thinking about the kooks y-pipe or maybe the mufflex?

Are there any true duals that will bolt on to the QTP LTs?

the mufflex y is the same as qtp's. i have it and its garbage. had to cut and weld it in 3 places just to get it on the car. it was over 2" too short and was completely blocking the tranny cross brace if it even touched a header. no human error could cause this upon install it was during construction.

I had the QTP headers and ORY and thought they fit great. If you take a little time with the ORY, you'll be able to get good ground clearance without any banging on the floorboard.
