Intake Exhaust Moving all that air in and out efficiently

Does this combo (headers, cats, y-pipe, exhaust) fit together?

Default Does this combo (headers, cats, y-pipe, exhaust) fit together?

I'm researching my exhaust mods to try and get them done all at once. I'm just checking to see if all of these parts I'm looking at will fit together properly:

DC Sports Headers
Kinetix Cats
Fujitsubo Y-Pipe
Greddy SP2 Exhaust

Also - does the Y-Pipe cause that much restriction with this setup? If I use the stock Y-Pipe is that going to really bottle up a lot of performance with the other pieces?

I ask because the least expensive Y-Pipe I've see in the Fujitsubo and it's $450. Seems expensive for something that looks relatively simple.

Thanks in advance, oh great collective intelligence!

Im really not familiar, is the Greddy exhaust not cat back? if not I might suggest finding one that is. cat back will replace the ypipe itself, and yes, you do want to replace that if you plan to do all that. its heavy, ugly, and ineffecient(or appears to be).

Thanks for the reply. That's a good point, I didn't realize that cat-back exhaust systems replace the stock Y-pipe - shows how clueless I am about these things!

Attached is a picture of the 350Z Greddy SP-2 system recently advertised on eBay. Does that long pipe replace the stock Y-Pipe?

No way, it probably bolts up to the Y pipe like all normal catbacks do.

Nope that pipe is not a Y pipe. But Greddy SP exhaust does look good. It's a bit more sleeper.
