I used a plasma cutter for mine. Worked real good. I actually made my hole a little oblong. With the width of the Y pipe, just a round hole does not let it sit down all the way. At least from my experience.

Wow. You must have a pretty hammered piece of pipe. I have had some from other suppliers that needed some work, but never that bad.

What do you think Josh?

Maybe run it to a local exhaust shop and get them to expand it a little bit more. Be the quickest fix... But I'm sure Cowboy will get you fixed up!
