LTs Y-Pipe question

Does anyone make a Y-Pipe that will bolt up to the factory exhaust infront of the cat? Similiar to how mac midlegnths Y-pipe fits.


I would go ahead and run LTs and a Y instead of midlegnths if i could do this, but would like to keep my catback system.

Thanks!

MY hooker Y-pipe came out RIGHT in front of the catback. Can't beat it with a stick.

So the mufflex and hooker both run over to the right, under the passenger seat area?


I have a flowmaster catback, if that makes any difference. I did a search and all the Y-pipes ive seen pics of run straight back

No, they end up right in the middle, right below the driveshaft tunnel.

Ahhhh, mine is a 95 and the cat runs under the passenger seat, with the Y pipe going off to the right to meet up with it.


Does anyone make a Y-pipe for LTs that would match up with this, or could a local muffler shop make one?

No one makes one. The shop could fab an S-pipe to make it fit
