Default *Fitment*Ebay 1jz Y pipe

Recently I have been looking for a downpipe and came across the ebay 3inch downpipe and Y pipe.
I have read about people installing it in there 1jz swapped sc300/400 on Clublexus but have also read on SF about fitment Issues.

For the people that have bought these off of fleabay, did you have any issues installing it?

Yes there are fitment issues, i remember we started a thread 2 years ago about that Y pipe i was going to do it on my 1jz but changed my mind, there are some grinding involve and you will blow the twins quicker.

I dont plan on booting too high. Maybe around 12psi would i still have this problem?

So should i just go with a downpipe with my twins, or just save up for the kind of turbo set up i want?

Mine blew on stock stop psi around 8 or 9 lol, it's a waste of time and money just baby these till you save and ready for single.
It's alot of work taking them twins off it's not worth the trouble.

Definitely not worth the hassle. One of the biggest pains to install and the quality is less than desireable.
