I came across this y pipe. It looks like it's Long enough to fit with out mods. Has anyone tried it? Does it fit?

Very interesting. But it says 02-07. Isn't the fitment different between 02-05 and 06-07?

I was hoping wtdash would chime in. Here is the link to his post:

It fits, but there is a kink in the silicone between the two pieces that looks like it would cause it to fail at some point. In another thread, mexicanzero mentioned having to modify it to fit his 06-07 tmic. It's up to you.

Well? Did it work?...late to the party here...
.....U could PM me!
Yes that'll work, but if your FXT TMIC is from an '04-'05 model you'll get interference w/the throttle/cruise cable. The '06-08 FXT or '06-'07 WRX are the optimum TMIC's for the SS/TWs.
I also had to extend the silicone hose on the one I used, but the one in the pic looks long enough.
Lastly, where the silicone hose connects to the one side of the 'Y' was tough to get just right...I ended up using a 'hump' hose on my '90 Turbo swap.
