Ls1hauls that is a nice looking Y . I think I might do the same.
I may go with Jet Hot LTs and a custom Y with flanged cats/off road pipes.
Thoughts?
Re: The AGONY of header/Y pipe choices...join in !?!?!???!??!! id just get a good set of longtubes and cust. true dual exaust if you need to pass a visual then get some gutted cats . if you need to pass a sniffer then im not to sure mabye some shorties hooked to stock cats and a good catback exaust like a borla should work well. from what ive heard buying after market cats is not nessary as far as flow goes, Because the stock ones flow enough to support a set of equil leginth headders or shorties. If your gonna go for longtubes your not gonna easily pass an emssissions test (from what ive seen) so you might as well not have cats or get gutted cats as so to just look legal for roadside inspections. hope this helps

Re: The AGONY of header/Y pipe choices...join in !?!?!???!??!! I think the Jet Hots are a good choice to get, you could still get the qtp y pipe with these if you wanted to get something pre-fabbed. Kooks would be the better header but you will Save a good 300 bucks by going with the Jet-Hots.

Re: The AGONY of header/Y pipe choices...join in !?!?!???!??!! When i looked at the $ for it and for Kook's with a Y, and then at true duals...
I'll need a catted Y but jet hot will have one out before i get sniffed anyway...
but teh OEM D/D is going on. I'm gonna drive from dallas to san antonio then to tucson with a cam, ORY, and a LM...that will be quite enough, certainly.

Re: The AGONY of header/Y pipe choices...join in !?!?!???!??!! I ended up going Jet Hot LT/ORY. Will get their catted Y when it comes out. Stuff is already at house waiting for me...still in Kuwait.
