Default Jet Hot Headers for X-Mas, NEED Y PIPE!!!

As the title says, I'm getting a set of Jet Hot's for christmas this year and I wanted to know which y pipe would be best. I've haven't read too many good things about the Jet Hot Y, so I looked around elsewhere...

Will the TSP ORY fit Jet Hots?
Will the Hooker ORY fit Jet Hots?
Will the Pacesetter ORY fit Jet Hots?

I know my other option is to get a custom one made with a flowmaster y collector, but I wanted to make sure there was another alternative. Does anyone have any of those combos? If so, how do you like them? I'm open to other suggestions as well...

Thanks,
J-WS6

Jet Hotts are the same design as Hooker and Flowtech. Could try one of those. Kooks look completely different so I doubt that'd work.

Go to a shop and have them custom make one that won't hammer the crap out of your floorboards. It will probably cost around the same as any aftermarket off-the-shelf y-pipe. Plus a shop can mandrel bend one for you too.

I have the Mufflex ORY. Its a beast and you would need to get a 4 to 3 reducer unless you are upgrading to a 4 inch catback (overkill IMO).

It fit with no problems and I still have good ground clearance. I was told by a sponsor I would need to modify it to fit the Jethots, however, that was incorrect. No mods necessary.

I'm getting custom duals next week so if you'd like my QTP ORY we could work something out. It's only about 3 months old.

I have the jet hot and it is a good piece but the cats were junk. The inside literally blew out of one of them and went through my loudmouth and on the street somewhere..or the track..lol

It has no cats now since I had the code deleted but I still have the sensors screwed into the y.
