Have located a disk changer for my 2000SS...someone told be that the wiring harness is already there where the changr goes...can anyone confirm this? Also, what purpose does the flat y-pipe serve on an SS stock exhaust. Replacing it with a new SLP pipe what changes can I expect. KICKBACKSS

Yep, lift up the carpet(cardbaord) on the driver side buy the wheel well (rear), you'll find it there. I did the same thing to my 02. Found an OEM changer for cheap and plugged it right in. Works great.

The harness should be there near the left rear speaker area.
The flat pipe offers more ground clearance. The SLP y-pipe will make it sound a little better, but will not increase the HP any. Posted by RagSS (Member # 1127) on :

...What Steve said . I just didn't like the look of seeing a flattened pipe under the car so I went to the SLP Y-pipe as well. There's no more 'area' in the cross-section but now it looks better, ...with a slight tone too...

It will make the exaust have a deeper sound than the stock flat one

The "Pancake Pipe" is the official term.

Got rid of mine the day after I took delivery of the car. Then I replaced the SLP pipe with the bigger SLP pipe with the LTs. Unfortunetly I already sold the SLP Y-pipe to another board memeber.
I've got a picture of the two Y-pipes (pancake and SLP) sitting next to each other...I'll see if I can dig it up? Here it is
