Default Y-Pipe with GMMG

What would be a good y-pipe to use with the GMMG and stock manifolds? I don't plan on going with long tubes now or for a while if at all so dont come in here saying to save up. I saw that SLP makes a stock replacement one. Would that be a good one ot go for?

Don't change unless you plan on getting headers or just want to throw some $ away. Not much at all to be gained.

Yeah, just bolt the GMMG up to the stock Y-pipe.

keep your stock y for now, if you decide to do headers, then change the y pipe

I just got a used SLP y-pipe and the GMMG from the recent GP. The SLP y-pipe is definitely better than the stock y-pipe but I wouldn't pay the price for a new one. I think MAC also makes a replacement y-pipe. I have no plans to do headers so I'm happy with the SLP y-pipe and GMMG since both are stainless steel.

Buying a replacement y for stock manifolds is a waste.

you could get offroad pipes for the stock y-pipe if you just want to be louder

those delete pipes cost more than just replacing the y pipe all the way to the manifolds
