Some Catbacks don't include the Y. And sell it separate. (There will be a Y available for you to purchase as well along with the cat wherever you buy it from) Your best bet is having a custom Y made and chopping that in place, not only is it cheaper, most of the times you can make it better than the company your buying the catback from. If you do go the custom Y route, make the Y as gentle as possible. Sharp bends are bad for exhaust flow (of course).

What kind of Catback are you looking at anyway? What kind sound levels you wanting? Are you just wanting it to make max performance and you don't care if you get pulled over because you idle too loud? OR are you wanting something that's nice and mellow, but deff not stock?
