Default What Y pip for LT's???

Was looking to get a set of pacesetter long tubes for my 95 Z Vert. Is there an aftermarket catted Y pipe that will bolt on to the LTs or would I have to get something custom?

Unfortunately not, you will have to go custom.

why do you want cats? just do a cut out spot after the Y-pipe so when you have to do your emmisions you can pop in an out the cat or just find someone to pass it, or tune it out...

The problem is CT emissions, I dont know anyone with an emissions center at their shop. CT changed all their emissions crap and everything is video monitored and bla bla bla cuz of all the problems CT had with people getting passed when they shouldnt have been.

I was talking to someone at work...ran race headers, hallowed cats, huge cam. Passed emissions fine. No codes thrown=pass. Make sure you have something that resembles a cat. I am thinking of just coat hangingering a heat shield there...its a cat I swear!! Im in CT btw.

What a bummer(CT emissions). Here in Illinois, '95 or is it '94 and older are exemptd.

You may be able to pass aslong as your engine is in good tune without cats, and your cam not being too radical. And ofcourse, if they don't do the visual inspection. Good luck.
