Default About to order new muffler and Y

Shopping around on summits site and looking on buying the magnaflow 11229 muffler and a y pipe. The stock muffler is a little bit longer then 27" and this magnaflow is 20".

Will that make any difference other then being a little shorter? Does anyone have this setup or something similar?

And also is the Y pipe 3'' in/out like the muffler? Or is a a different size?

I believe the Y is 2.5 in and 3 out for the Hemi I'm not 100% though. As for the muffler you'll just need some extra pipe to make up for the shorter muffler but it will be louder too

Thanks and I think its the same size for 4.7 and 5.7.I'll have to see how much gap I'll have once it's on, then go from there.

What magnaflow did you get? The one I was looking at was offset out and centered inlet and I need both offset inlet/outlets.

I got center in Dual out...My Magnaflow muffler was only 17" long. Oh, make sure you buy extra exhaust tubing and if you are not wielding, a spare set of couplings/clamps just in case. I got the Generic 3 chamber design and chose my inlets and outlets from Summit Racing. I got mine when it was on sale for $40. I'm only an hour away from the warehouse in Atlanta so I could go pick mine up.
