I've seen some people mention here USB Y-Splitters (something like this?) If I plugged the power side into say a 2.1amp phone charger, and the data side into a USB hub, would that work to supply the power needed and allow for running at the 350MHz range? Or do I need to make other modifications to allow the Y-Splitter to work?

If the powered hub is not restricted per port, yes that would.

That's why a lot of people including me are using the superbpag 5V/14W hub

So if I got the superbpag hub, would I need a splitter or will that hub provide enough power all on its own?

They make a couple different ones, this is the one thats 70W 14A http://www.amazon.com/Superbpag-Portable-Charger-Transfer-Samsung/dp/B013OK10YM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1464263368&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=70+watt+usb+hub&psc=1

As for Y-cable, it all depends on how hard you want to push the sticks. If you want to stay around 200-300MHz with 2 sticks, hub wouldn't break a sweat, want to go for ~400MHz, use Y-cables.

Also, watch the cables, some are way to cheaply made (to small of gauge wire used), they could get very hot...
