can i get SLP headers WITHOUT y-pipe?

I wanna buy the SLP y-pipe now, since the factory one IS so crappy, but i don't have the money for y-pipe AND headers at this time. i know i can buy JUST the y-pipe from SLP. but all the headers they sell come with the y-pipe. so does anyone know if there is a way i can buy just the headers from SLP?

lol. The only time I saw them without Y is when someone bought a bunch off of them that were in a warehouse fire or something.

because the Y pipes they sell are for stock manifolds not their headers.

Buying their y-pipe to bolt to your factory manifolds, then buying headers-only as a later "upgrade", expecting them to bolt to the y-pipe you now have, is a blueprint for disappointment and wasting money.

You think the stock y-pipe is crappy, but you're keeping the factory manifolds? Me thinks you needs to rethink your thinking...
