sounds a little risky to go for the y-pipe , i would concentrate on the duals ! get a cherrybomb at CanadianTire for the centre-pipe , it's 20%off now & has a niiice deep sound & do-not believe the talk about it blowing out ... mine is still the same sound !
is this the SAME car that was gutted ?
does that mean it has NO engine & NO dipstick cuz i really would like that part !

seriously, if you can. Grab the SVT body kit as a whole it would be REALLY worth it.
And the UIM and LIM will sell for like 350 bucks at least.

Make sure you grab the main cat, don't worry about the y-pipe, SVT y-pipe and non-svt are identical, unless you see that its been optimized...
The SVT main cat is 2.25" and non-SVT is 2"... If you're grabbing it, might as well get that.

NO!!!!! The bolts will be rusty beyond belief and fused on there from constant heating and cooling. You will most likley strip the nut. I had to get these things that have some funky pattern to the inside of the socket that pulls it onto the nut the tighter you turn it and that combined with a at least 2ft long torque wrench (I was at the local tech school, they got everything there!) and my leg pushing the thing got it off, amazingly I didn't break off the nut!! Others might have have better luck with this and I will admit this is a little biased as I am still bitter from my fights with these bolts.
