Part number 12469 - I had talked to the engineers at Magnaflow and requested the internal schematic of the muffler. They confirmed that although the website shows an X is is indeed a Y

If you look at the attached schematic, lower right corner is #12469

They mentioned they have other mufflers that indeed have an internal X
But this form that fits in the tunnel with a 5x8” and variable length doesn’t exist with them with an X. They are typically wider.

Again passing what info I got from the tech.
I really wanted it to work out for me but it is what it is.

As an aside, I installed the 3” in out MBRP resonators and while the sound is louder/more aggressive… I was able to go full WOT, full power and breathed a sigh of relief. Still need to figure out a quieter solution for certain tracks but if I am cruising around and don’t jump on the throttle it’s quiet enough and quite reasonable.
