Y-pipe adapter...where to get?

I dont know if they still make the adapter for this y-pipe but maybe you guys now where I can find one....I really dont want to cut the flange off...I will call SLP on Monday to see if they still have it...I think I saw it on their site one day but I cant remember where i found it..

you guys have any ideas as to what I can do about this? Im not going to run a cat but would still like to keep the flange that came with the y-pipe..I need to get the exhaust done so I can hear whats going on with the engine...Ive been running the car with just the Y...not driving it just starting it and trying to hear of any leaks ..but the damn thing is to loud..

thanks

either fab one up yourself, get a shop to do it, chop the flange off or give slp a call. those are the only options i can see at this point bro.

I called SLP today and they do not make that flange extention anymore....I then called a machine shop and asked if they could make me a flange just like the one on the Y-pipe with about a 9" pipe coming off of it....I took the Y-pipe over to him and he said he could do it for $160.00 ...you got to be kidding me aI said!......I'll just have to cut the flange off and work with what I got......

Hey, Are you needing a flange like the one in the pic with a 9 in long with a 3 circular pipe ext. Are we correct on this assumption???

Check out http://www.torquetechexh.com/ That flange is similar to what is offered for the g-body, grand nationals and regals. Torque tech makes those flanges, request a catalog, or look on there site.

I found one!.......thanks for the help guys...and also thanks for that link "cronsformula350"

I ordered the flange from them and then called around and wouldnt you know it...Midas had a flange just like what I was needing and also had to the 3"pipe...so I got them both for $20.....the link was going to charge me $54..so I had to call them back and have them credit my card, luckly they hadnt shipped it yet.

This is what Im putting in placwe of my CAT!...hope it sounds good.

thanks again guys!
