Default Custom 3.5 inch y pipe

Who has made their own 3.5 inch y pipe from scratch? I want to get the 2 inch kooks with 3.5 collector but they do not make a 3.5 inch y. I was thinking of getting one of the pipe kits from summit and make something up. Anyone use that and make it happen? If not i could always bring it to a local shop and have them do it.

Also would 1 7/8 x 3 inch collector or the 2 inch x 3 inch collector be fine for my build? Its a 403 with an f-1a build. What do you guys think?

I'm pretty sure Kooks makes them. Unless they stop making them in production.

I fabbed up my own 3.5" ypipe using mandrel bends. I got some pics on my Facebook page. I used v-band clamps and I'm regretting that move Lol. They just hang down a bit too far.
