Is this build better than Super Dash/Corran? I'm finding that stress is playing a bigger part in the current meta, and having the Y-Wing will probably make people think twice for going straight for Dash. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
I flew that Dash with Corran for awhile and really liked how much damage the combo of Lone Wolf and Recon Spec could shrug off. I think that whether the B-Wing and Y-Wing are better than Corran all comes down to what you are up against.

Right. My meta is full of 2-ship (Fel/RAC, dual IG, etc) lists. Having the stresshog is a good way to shut down some of those lists. I'm trying to make my list a little more jack-of-all-trades rather than hammer and syckle.
I think a second BTL Gold/Ion would work better than the Blue. That way if you're up against big ships, you can potentially land the needed 2 ion tokens in one turn to disable a ship.
You'd need 1 point to do it, though. Maybe drop RecSpec for Jan Ors?
I could drop HLC to Mangler, but don't sure if Mangler Dash is any good...

I'd be wary about switching RecSpec out on a ship with Lone Wolf. Lone Wolf only lets you reroll blanks so having a focus token to spend is golden.
I do think having two Warthogs would be cool though.

Agreed.
Maybe switch Dash for Vrill, then add the 2 hogs
Vrill w/HLC, katarn, Outrider, eng
1 x Gold ,title,ION T, R3A2
1 x Gold ,ion T, R2
100 pts
with Vrill, you can shoot at what yer stressin', plus the 2 ions' to walk em out the front door...
Just a thot...
cheers!

The only thing that Vrill gives you over a Wild Space Fringer is PS3 instead of PS2 if you take the Outrider Title. That title effectively disables his pilot ability.
Deltmi, I really like your build as is. Yes, two Y-Wings would be potent as well but I think the B-Wing is a big enough threat on his own, and makes target selection difficult for the opponent. Nothing can really be ignored in your list, and that's always solid. I know I'll be trying it out for sure soon! :-)
I will probably play this list tomorrow at a tourney (~20 ppl). I'll post the results for better or worse.
You're right WW, I never even connected the two.(title and Vrill), that'll learn me....Duh... 
sorry lads..
