WSP y-pipe fitment

I know this has probably been discussed before, but here goes. I just ordered the y-pipe for my VE, and I was wondering if there are any problems with it hitting the sway bar. The one that I have on my VG did, and I think that might have contributed to a broken manifold stud. If it does hit the bar, has anyone been able to solve this? Any input is appreciated.

This was pretty much an issue with the Cattman pipes. From what i've seen the WSP pipes fit great. The one on my VG had plenty of clearance over the sway bar. If you have issues I would seriously look into the motor mounts being the culprit. Otherwise i'd look into another solution for a Y-pipe...

Yeah when it was hitting at first I had a bad front mount. Even after I replaced it though it would occasionally hit. I dunno, maybe the rear wasnt in the best shape either. I guess if it does hit it would just be a good excuse to fill them with polyurethane

My mounts are perfectly fine. I have it on my VE and never heard it smack anything ever. So my opinion on fitment is a for warpspeed.

Well i just finished putting it on, along with a b-pipe, high flow cat, and magnaflow muffler. There is no hitting the swaybar, so I guess I dont have to worry about snapping any manifold studs for now!

Glad there was enough clearance.
