installed ypipe

well i finally got my ypipe and installed it today but i didn't really notice a difference when driving around. i reset my ecu (turned the screw to diagnostic mode, turned key to on, turned it off, put the screw back) but i still didn't notice a difference after that. i've read that you should feel a big difference in power after this install. did i do something wrong?

If you know what 3 tenths off your 1/4 mile feels like, then that's what you should feel. It's not going to be huge, but it will probably be the most noticable single bolt on mod that you can do.

When I first installed mine, I drove mine around easy for about 1 block and then opened her up. I could tell that I was driving a different car. It was definitely noticable... but not forced induction noticable. I don't know what to tell you. There's not too much to the install except for a faulty o2 sensor.

It's there...but unless you know what you're looking for you're not gonna notice it.

It's not a HUGE difference. Personally, I felt more from my CAI than I did from my y-pipe.
