. At this point they might as well just do the Headers with Cats attached that Bolt up to there Y-Pipe and just save a Lot of trouble with Welding it up. I am Sure people would be more than willing to jump all over that set up.

I don't think DT does anything with cats, But I do know with this y pipe there won't be welding needed to attach it.

Could you clarify this statement? Are you saying the Y-pipe will mate to the headers directly? Or the Y-pipe will have a flange on the end of it which would bolt to the OEM pre-catalyst if they were cut and welded to the DT headers?
Don't know yet. It's being designed and have to wait some more for final unit. I just know it won't require welding if you already have headers, that's what I've been told.
Ok, the Y pipe will bolt into the factory flanges behind the first set of cats and remove the 2nd set or 1 cat after depending on the year. It will also include o2 sensor bung plugs for the 03-04 models so no leakage occurs.

I've had that URD y pipe in the cart multiple times but man it's expensive for what you get. I would like something a little cheaper so that I can justify cutting the two bolt flanges off for v-bands right away. Hopefully DT comes through with something like they have for the FJ and Tacoma for us with the terribly placed electronic actuators on the V8's!
If this new y pipe has any resonators on it I will be staying away. The two Doug Thorley y pipes my brother had for his FJ decided to let little BBs rattle around in the resonator making an awful noise.
The URD pipe might be expensive but its at least stainless steel.

I did hear that about the FJ version over on their forums when I was trying to use it on the V8. If I get a second vehicle to daily I'll have a chance to pull my headers back off and weld the leaking SAI connection shut for good and may have to just go full stainless at that point. Really eyeing the Gibson catback too but don't want to lose too much back pressure.
Dec/Jan, hoping around $399. Don't quote me, but it will be a deal and Stainless of course.

I've sold a slew of the Gibson catbacks for this V8 with and without headers. The Gibson gives double the power with the headers. I'd say about 90% go with one if they are getting the headers. I have an awesome sale going on right now on the Gibson too. THere is is single straight out the back version, and now a side dual tipped version.

I got it installed and it sounds great! Its a little louder then stock, but a nice deep sound and no drone.
This video is the Gibson catback with the Doug Thorley headers and Magnaflow high-flow cats that I sold the customer.
Bought my gibson from you about 2 years ago and I love it. cant wait for this y-pipe so i can order the the headers and do it all at once. the ticking is kiling me

So, High flow DT headers + high flow Y-pipe and then high-flow cat back exhaust. What is recommended for high flow cats?
And, of course, a proper cold air intake to keep things flowing from start to finish.
