What's the best Ypipe to use with my new JetHots?

I have to upgrade my y-pipe since the one that came with my Edelbrock's wont work with my new LT's. I don't want to run a "duel exhaust" 'cause 99% of the set-up's I've seen have the exhaust exiting in front of the rear tires rather than over the axle and out the back like they're supposed to.

I also don't want to go to an exhaust shop to have them make a y-pipe for me 'cause all the exhaust shops around me really suck. What is the best aftermarket y-pipe for my JetHots? How much? And if possible could you post a link? I'm sure most if not all will require at the very least some "MINOR" mods to fit propery. Just like to know what I should be expecting. Thanks.

Ps. I run a Borla cat back and I just noticed that the flanges are 2bolt and the one on my Jet Hot's are 3 bolt. Anyone have any pics of their LT setup?

Why not just get a Jet Hot y-pipe?

If they don't have one yet, they are sure taking their time.

Try Mufflex or Hooker y-pipe.

Do any of our "supperting Advertisers" sell the hooker/Mufflex y-pipe for JetHot LT's ? Are there any GP's happening anytime soon ?

Get the jet hot y-pipe (I did) what is it is the hooker Y-pipe with the dent in the driver side already in place to clear the trans brace. My setup: Jet hot long tubes, Jet hot Y-pipe, and SLP loudmouth ALL bolted up 100% without any cutting or anything! The y-pipe is GREAT because it is SO pressed agianst the trans brace that it wont vibrate for anything! you wont be sorry, I payed $190 I THINK and it was coated also! Great item.

Where'd you get that y-pipe? I will also be installing Jet Hot Long Tubes and I already have the SLP Loudmouth system. How does it sound by the way?

Where did you buy them from? Was it from one of our Advertisers? If so, which one?
