Upper strut tower

I ve been looking all over the place on the websites and it seems that they dont make upper strut tower for SE-DOHC ? They only made upper strut tower for SOHC also what does the y-pipe do with it ? Increase more horsepower ?

Strut Tower Brace -- use the 2000-2003 Maxima bar for the SE-DOHC (Engine model VE30DE) engine. As for the y-pipe, it increases horsepower by improving exhaust flow -- it has nothing to do with improving handling / suspension.

...and yes, that's about right for the FSTB. I just bought mine from ebay for $19 and it should be here sometime this week.
