Anyone switch from hookers to pacesetters? or vice versa? >>>>

If anyone's switched from Hooker LT's to Pacesetter LT's - did you have any problems re-using your y-pipe? I've got a set of Pacesetters I'm gonna put in - and just need to see if I need to find a trailer to give me a ride to the muffler shop - or if the Y-pipe I'm using w/ my hookers would fit? Or.. Be a close enough fit? Just trying to get all my ducks in a row

TIA...

Ya i went from hookers to pacesetters, i didnt reuse the Y though, didnt even check for it to fit b/c i liked the pacesetter better than mine. Sorry.

Nope.. My Hookers are just flattened on the bottom. Coating's coming off a little - but.. It's normal. Still is shiny ceramic up top. lol.. Trying out the pacesetter's since they're cheap and no #1 primary slip fit tube issues. Or the 3 - 7 equalization/crossover tube breakage.

I'll have a cheap set of coated Hooker LT's for sale soon!

If your Y-pipe doesnt fit on your pacesetter headers, I would be interested in taking it off your hands for the right price.

Don't your hookers have a flanged collector, and the pacesetters have a slip fit style?

Once I get my heads ported, Im thinking of selling off my TPiS long tubes and possibly going with another set. I don't like the sheath that extends from each bolt cavity.

I may need a new y-pipe regardless ... I've got a spohn torque arm I need to install as well... And I think the front torque arm mount/DS loop crosses over right where the rear y-pipe/int. pipe flange is.
