Default QTP Y pipe replacement?

I am running the 1 3/4" QTP longtubes and I was wanting to replace my QTP ORY Y pipe. I am lowered with the prokit and was wondering if there is any replacement pipe I could order that I could bolt up to my QTP longtubes that has better ground clearence or doesn't hang as low. I dont want to buy another one from QTP to have it banged up again
Any thoughts?

Go to a muffler shop and have them custom fab you one. It will be the best fitting replacement that you can find. I have done it 2 times so far, and they have both been superior quality for a fraction of the price of shipping and hassle of getting a pre-fabbed one.

i agree.most of the y pipes hang pretty low going from the driver side to the passenger side.even the adjustable ones like the qtp still seem to hang lower than i like so i'm sure an exhaust shop should be able to fix you up.

In a few months, QTP will be coming out with a new revised stainless steel ypipe that will fit and tuck up nicely, if you can wait, I would get this, if not get a custom y fitted on your car.
