Default Which y-pipe with QTPs?

I am thinking of switching from my TDs back to a y-pipe/catback set up because I just can't seem to get the ground clearance I need for the roads around here (louisiana)

I was looking at the TSP y-pipe, but which ones are you guys using with QTP headers? I am going for an off-road setup so no cats to worry about.

No, it won't fit. I bought a pacesetter since it was so cheap. If you go to QTP's site, they say "their" y pipe is an upgrade from Pacesetter, Jethot, or Hooker. Kind of gives you the answer. I just didn't feel like spending $335 for an aluminized y. Eventually I'll end up with a stainless Hooker.

The QTP catted y is a total POS. Never fit right, Hits everything. I'm taking my car in tomorrow to get a custom Y-pipe made.

not much i can do since i am lowered with the pro-kit, it could go up alittle more about a 1/4 inch closer to the body which I might get done since it barely clears speed bumps with just me in the car.

the longtubes tuck up fine, but I can get the y-pipe alittle more up but still, 3 inch y-pipe is just big with a lowered car.

if i had to do it again I would do oval piping instead.
