Hmm this is interesting. I like the fact that they're putting flexible joints in the Y-pipe like stock, that's got to reduce the resonance of the whole thing, which I suspect would make for a cleaner sound. The lack of any sort of crossover between the sides seems odd to me though. I thought there were usually benefits to having some variety of crossover configuration, even on a V6 application (although not nearly as necessary as on a V8).

They are going to test this configuration, X-Pipe, and H-Pipe. They just haven't gotten that far yet.
