From the picture at least that looks like a Y-pipe to be used as a slip-fit for long tube headers, so it won't work for you.

years back Borla and MAC did make a Y-pipe with high flow cats that worked with the stock manifolds, but for the money you got only a slightly different sound and maybe 5HP gain, and for a few dollars more you could by a shorty headers set up that got you better sound and HP gaines.

So as others already stated, look at a catback system first. My opinion: for the money the Hooker Catback is nice sounding, little deeper then stock at idle, and sounds nice in the upper PRMs and not exspensive.
