Is there a header with perfect fitment?
#11
Ok so still undecided about cats...but I will figure that out.
If you use a Y-pipe, it connects the two collectors into one pipe, right? And then, that one pipe goes into a single inlet muffler, and exits with a dual outlet...thus making a dual exhaust. Am I correct in assuming that?
Now I know true duals arent the best for low end power (which is my preference, as opposed to top end). But for sake of helping me clarify...if you use a Y-pipe, when does that single pipe split in order to have a true dual system with 2 seperate pipes, each with their own muffler?? Can an X-pipe come into play anywhere?
gosh, i dont know why this confuses me so much..

Y pipe is just the piece that connects the headers to the factory cat back section of the exhaust. X pipe would replace the "y" pipe and would need a custom exhaust mated up to it.

I could set you up with some American Racing Headers with a dual 3" outlet instead of a Y-pipe. Then you could add your X-pipe and dual exhaust to that. Send me a PM if you'd like more info.
The fit & quality of ARH headers is always great, they make GREAT power, and they install easily.

So I just got off the phone with a local exhaust shop...and he told me that long tube headers won't work good with my truck because they will rattle and I'll lose a bunch of top end...WtF?! I think he is full of crap
