I'm sure these have been used. For some reason I'm having shops tell me they can't install it due to the inlets being close together. Anyone have an experience like this?

If they are saying this then go to a better exhaust shop. Some shops are have no clue.

well said!!! They must be looking at your dual in pipes into your muffler. They are separated much more than a vibrant Y. Any quality exhaust shop will be able to correct this issue. Find a new shop.

I figured this was the case just couldn't believe I had three shops tell me it blew my mind. Like they wouldn't make it if it didn't work.

Look at the Cajun Ypipe, I use that merge all day in my builds. Cajun Bpipes | shreveport, LA 71129

 

[richard_58]

That looks just like the Y I have. Well thanks fellas. Wish me luck on finding a real shop.

Since you do builds and I honestly know little too nothing just what these "shops" tell me maybe you could give me a little input. So I had the resonators deleted and they went with stock piping back to the Y then about a foot of 3" piping in to a 3" in/out bullet then dumped before the axle. The new Y pipe(that hasn't been installed) is 2.5 in 3 out. Should I have the shop make the pipe where the resonators were2.5 all the way to the Y?

Absolutely! Your shooting yourself in the foot if you don't, stock pipe is only 2" in front of the Y. Are you running headers yet? If not 2.25" bpipes and 2.25" ypipe will be better for low end. 2.5" to 3" works great with headers and Uprev. I have a whole kit on the website so if the shop charges you too much you may get my bolt on stuff cheaper. It's all stainless and mandrel bent also.

 

[richard_58]

So say I don't have headers yet. Not planning on any time soon. Would i lose out that much with 2.5 to the y and out 3?

 

[nightowl]

Maybe some low end torque but your not gonna gain till you Uprev and add headers. 2.25" to 3" like the JBA catback ypipe is your best bet with the stock manifolds.

I eventually will go headers I'm thinking just getting 2.5 now. Is there any difference in sound between 2.25-3 and 2.5-3?

 

[nightowl]

The tone will be deeper with 2.5" bpipes and ypipe.
