front exhaust pipe

Hi,
I tried to search for this, but the search engine was turned off.

Anyways, the front exhaust pipe on my 93 SE has a leak, it needs to be replaced. The muffler shop quoted me $600. That's insane, is there a cheaper alternative to this. Can I get the warp speed Y-pipe to replace that front exhaust pipe in my Maxima, or is there anything cheaper? Also is this something I can do myself, what are some problems I might run into? Thanks in advance

go Warpspeed you'll get a performance increase and still pay less than replacing it with the restrictive OEM pipe

if by front exhaust pipe you mean y pipe and not manifold yes a 200$ warpspeed y pipe will fix the leak and its 8 bolts and an o2 sensor to change and is very easy even easier if you have an impact wrench

thanks for your prompt reply, I really appreciated.

Where can I get the best price for the Warpspeed?
I found one on Ebay for $200. Here's a link
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2425032012

What's the difference between Mandrel and non Mandrel bent? Is one cheaper than the other? Also does this comes with everything I need to install it? Thanks in Advance

I know you can go to WWW.warpspeedperformance.com and order it directly. I'm not sure what the price difference is, I haven't picked one up yet.

mandrel bent will flow slightly better than regular pressure bending and the cost will be slightly higher although if you dont care about performance just get the cheaper one
