so my headers suck!

Well I went down to meinike to get my exhuast leak fixed, i got the big ass leak fixed, but my y pipe collecters are junk and are to small for the headers...
any suggestions on what to do? and where can I get my cut out installed for cheap? I was quoted $150..

Did the Y-pipe come with the headers? What brand/model are they?

why exactly are the collectors junk and how r they to small. maybe the Y pipe is to big. im guessing they are 3" collectors which is kinda the normal size for headers.

and of course they said 150 bucks, easy to rip off a little kid comin in asking about a cutout for his car. they know he doesnt know whats up and will pay it
