Will the Hooker Y-Pipe work on the Jet Hot LTs?

As soon as I get a y-pipe I will be installing the LTs, but I cant decide which one to get. The Stainless works is 2.5, the Mufflex is too much money, and I see that Hooker makes a Y pipe for their LTs and I was looking to get it. Just need to know if it will work?

This has been discussed many times before. Do a search and you should find lots of info. Basically, the Mufflex will work but many find that the fittment sucks. It's kind of hit and miss. Some have no problems and others such as myself had to significantly modify the Mufflex and the car to get it to fit. I think the general consensus is that your best option is to get a custom Y-pipe made. If you can't do this then the Mufflex can be made to work just be prepared for possible hacking, slicing, dicing and torching.

Oh I see, I wasn't aware that Hooker offered this. Interesting, any options that offer an alternative to the Mufflex pipe is worth investigating.
