Sounds as if you have a misfire. Check for stored error codes.
Could be coils or injectors.

Not sure how mechanically inclined you are and what you are looking for in your exhaust performance overall, but you can either replace the entire y-pipe or get some quotes from an exhaust shop for a new flex pipe section. They can hack the broken flex pipe portion off and weld a new one on... I've done this in a pinch on my previous Max for convenience and I didn't want to dump any more money into it... Depending on the shop and area, prices are about $125 for everything...

be careful i think its easier to fab full headers y pipe than it is to fab just the y. that said many "cheap" setups are that way as the require the use of their headers it saves them R&D costs they may not just bolt up to your manifold. in fact i would like to see it anyone has had luck just using the ypipe with these cheap options.
