I am looking to have the stock Y-pipe replaced on my truck to allow for a more free flowing exhaust. Do you guys buy these Y-pipes online somewhere, or do you just have the exhaust shops fab them up? if so, how much would it run me to just have them fab up a Y-pipe? TIA

 

I had a shop make mine when I put my headers on. Very compact, about a foot long. It's not 100% free flowing but MUCH better than the stock "Y-Pipe".

Had I known about it at the time, I would have purchased a Magnaflow Y-Pipe online for about $25 (Summit, Jegs, etc.), it looks to be as free flowing as you can get...

 

Real cheap to buy. Then just have an exhaust shop weld it in for you.

On my 4.7L I went with the Magnaflow dual 2.5" in single 3" out and it welded up nice and easy, was good for a few ponies as well

 

How much do you think the labor should be for installing a y-pipe. I called the shop that did my exhaust and the guy was like havent done them before, i would have to see it. Im like come on man im not driving out there just for you to see it. 30 min drive btw

 

had a shop fab up and install me one, cost $50. then another $35 to weld in my muffler.

 

Which one?

 

Go all the way and get longtube headers with an off-road 3" y-pipe... lol that's really the only way to get it free flowing, plus it changes the stock crossover point to just behind the tranny instead of right underneath the engine.
