I just put coated Pacesetters on with the TSP catted Y last Friday. Sounds perfect for me with the Magnaflow, nice at idle and cruise, and GREAT at WOT. I went with the catted Y since I didnt want it overly loud...some of my neighbors in the subdivision would probably be ****** and call the cops who can also be ******!

I had to grind the tab on the block a little and remove the steering shaft to get the drivers side in. No big deal really. Fits good and tight. We did have to cut about 2" off the Y pipe and 2" off the Magnaflow mid pipe. My advice get the Mufflex Y pipe hanger clamp from Thunder so it will stop the banging on the floorboard. Worth $40 and does a great job.
