FAIL haha.

Is the space between headers different? If you got headers that would match up to the height of a 4th's ypipe would everything match up about right? Ignoring the probable need for custom work after the ypipe. Because based on the pictures it just looks like the rear manifold goes lower then the 4th's does.

The picture i posted of the 3rd gen pipe is a VE y-pipe.

The stock vg pipe is very similar.
