    What's up guys. I managed to get my hands on a set of Downey long tube headers. With where each banks collectors start, I won't be able to use the stock Y pipe. I've toyed with the idea of dual exhaust and keeping the stock components for emissions time, but figured that may be a pain in the ass to do every two years. My other idea is to try and make my own Y pipe and route it below the tranny and have everything still route through the cats and muffler. Anyone have experience with this?

    Either way, I would have to make a crossover that either goes under the transmission, or recreate the stock crossover with a bit of modifying of it
