Re: Y PIPE

I am crushed my outer pipe is crushed. I cannot believe GM did that. But I have seen it on other GM's, like the CTS-V has a flattened pipe for ground clearance..

Re: Y PIPE

I think there's some truth to it for lower hp vs performance options, and and also maybe an improvement in product supply through the years
