I'm sure yours will go on just fine. I looked at the Pacesetters too, but the ones that say 'ceramic coated' are on the outside only, and I didn't like the 3" collector (and resulting 3" cats) for the power level I'll be at and the reasonable noise level I'd like to maintain....

You get the lightning/harley version off of ebay or somewhere else? I see what you're saying with that setup. I was also considering that. I was wondering though, where the duals end at, will the dual side of that Y transition fit into both sides? If that makes any sense. Basically, are the pipes going to be the same distance away from each other as the dual side of the Y pipe?

Do you know if the Magnaflow Y pipe is Stainless or not? I saw that one you posted from Summit is aluminized. I'd rather have everything be stainless steel.

Also, how many O2 extensions are needed? I heard they were only needed for the front two since the long tubes are going to push the O2s farther away. Do the rear O2s stay relatviely in the place?

Got it on ebay. The Y is aluminized, I didn't really care since my cat-back that it'll hook to isn't stainless. I'm sure you can find stainless somewhere. As far as the width I'm counting on the fact that you are putting multiple pieces together as well as the passenger side pipe behind having small jog to it, should be able to move things around to make it fit. Only need 2 extensions if you have a tuner, just shut off the rears. They may well reach anyway, won't know that until I install.
