3" stainless setup. 

I'm told pypes makes a 2.5" system that is pretty nice. 

What happened that you only need the y pipe?

Put a Hooker setup on my GN when I first got it. Cheap...but it fit and had correct turbo mufflers with it.

Hi, Just letting your know I went to the muffler shop to cut and weld a new offset section of both pipes and they did a good job.
 Now I'm fighting with putting everything together which is not easy doing it by yourself. Today I finally got all together except for both tail pipes which needs to be extended since I cut off close to the factory weld, buy still needs the extension.
 Thanks for your help, Julio

It may look by a tuff job doing it by myself, but nothing can compare to when I had to replace the transmission by myself.
 I jacked the car as high is it can go, but still I had to till the tranny downward to clear the tranny's bell housing. Then while underneath is went I installed the torque converter.
 The only good thing I did was given my wife a set of sound proof headset, of not to head me on my moments of few words. :013:
 The only thing I have to do is go back to the muffler shop so they can weld an extension pipe to the tail pipe. Once I finalize all I will post to you again (if possible being underneath) some pictures of the complete exhaust system.

Interesting, At what age did you do the tranny thing?
Did you have a lift, or just use floor jack?

Good to hear, I'm 67 and the only time I did tranny work is when I was young working with my mechanic father doing a 1960 Cadillac tranny on the driveway in the winter. I learned from him, and today I thank my old man for teaching me a lot of mechanical stuffs, as this save me a lot of money, and knowing I'm doing the work correctly.
