Default need info on exhaust

Hey guys, this might be a noob question, but is there a way I can tell if my car has a stock y pipe? I know that the previous owner put Flowmaster catback on it, but I'm unsure if they replaced the y pipe too. Thanks in advance.

I'm sure there is, and I'm sure someone will chime in with the answer, but the quickest way right now would be to post up a picture of it if you can and someone will tell you. I skipped the y-pipe deal and went straight for true duals so I'm not much help with it. But I probably remember what the stock y-pipe looks like well enough to let you know if it's it or not.

Actually, does what's on the car now include a cat or not? Because if there's no cat then it's obviously aftermarket. lol

Yeah it has a cat. Now I wish I would have taken pictures while I had it on the lift at work.

It's cool, is the car lowered? If not you could just snap one or two from the sides. I'd assume that's all it would take.

Nope.. they look good lowered but I don't have the patience to drive a lowered car without losing a bumper, lol.
I will try to take a picture though, thanks for the replies.

Ok I don't how much help these will be but it wasn't easy with the car on the ground.

Ok thanks. Any recommendations for aftermarket that aren't super expensive?

I know what a crush bent is but what is a stock crush bent tube? Is it the same thing?
