Could use some explanation, a Y pipe is usually associated with single exhaust as a means of connecting the cylinder bank opposite that which aligns with the exhaust pipe to that exhaust pipe. Is this what you're doing?

If so the next question is why are you building a pipe you can buy, is this a larger diameter or does it have to route differently than the OEM piece?

Are you equipped with a welder and some metal cutting power saw or grinder?
