Pretty sure it doesn't matter. If the Y pipe lines up with everything than the HFCs will line up with the already lined up Y pipe. No?

get hfc for your car year.
Ypipe is just an oem replacment doesnt change the alignment of the hfc.

Ace, I'm the one who sold u the Y pipe.. Its pretty much brand new so you lucked out..

As long as you run normal DE headers you can use 03-06 sedan exhaust components or 03-07 coupe components.. However if you get HR OEM or aftermarket headers, you'll need HR cats/components.

Just out of curiosity and I'm sure ace wouldn't mind know. Can the HFC and Y pipe install be done on ramps? I know I need new gaskets but can I avoid the shop for this one?

I think alot of people change their exhaust by themselves you just need to gaskets. Unless your shiit is all rusted down there then you would need to torch the bolts.

you wouldnt even really need ramps. changing a y pipe is VERY easy. Re use your old gaskets unless they're totally ****ed.
