Okay... I know what the hell you're going on about now... The "Y" pipe is a Supra N/A thing it's part of the modulated intake system which provides torque at lower RPM and load levels. The Cressida (another 7M car) did not have this system and uses a simpler intake system which looks very much like the 7M-GTE's intake setup.

There are two different models of "Y" pipe too... The JDM "Y" pipe does not have the small plate that sits on top of the fork that the North American models do, this is because that small plate (held on with 4 bolts) is an access used in the machining and servicing of the EGR port. The GE has a MUCH more efficient and evenly distributed EGR system than the Cressida and GTE, BTW.
