Y-pipe decisions

One of the things I would look Into is the type and size of flex pipe used. Those will create a bigger restriction to flow than a tighter radius bend.

Yeah, "Interlock Liner" flex pipes are far superior flow over "steel braid" style.

I'd inquire as to who uses what kind of flex and decide off of that. If they all use the same, go motordyne.
