I made my own y-pipe. Use the flowmaster y and order the hedman s extensions and you can make it work.

Re: How To Rig Up Exhaust With Long Tube Headers?

OMG i don't see how those people live with setups like that, they must scrape on everything.....mine is a single 2 7/8 pipe running back and i scrap and thats because its dangling a tad bit lower than the car, its rediculous...i think it might be because my springs and shocks are shot...but i just got lowering springs, so that will make it scrape even more unless i figure out a way to really make the suspensiion stiff so it hardly moves, how can i do that? is there certain kinds of shock i can get?

Would the Mufflex Y-Pipe Work With Hooker 2460 Headers? I'm not sure if those are shorty headers or long tube........sorry i'm an idiot when it comes to headers.
