The stock exhaust has a Y pipe. It goes from each cat and comes into one pipe. That single pipe goes back to the muffler, usually dual chamber, and then goes out to the dual tips from the single muffler. Take a look under your Z and you will see how the exhaust is.

A Y back means all parts after the factory Y pipe. That's why some people sell after market Y pipes.

Hope that helps.
