Hi Guys,

I have to replace my y-pipe -- the flex is broken. There is a group deal going on at WS, and I'm thinking of taking advantage of it.

What are your impressions about the WS Y-pipe? Is it compatible with our model - 91 GXE ?

Are there any issues i have to guard against?

And what about the exhaust noice -- is it noticeably louder...since i like the one the stock produces?

For 160 shipped, it is quite a good deal !

thanks.. Noela

It's a tad louder than stock, but not much. Warpspeed is great to work with and makes a good product. it may take you a little while to get it because of all the group deals on them currently but when you do, you'll be happy with it.

I put one on my VE a few months ago and I didn't notice much of a difference in exhaust noise. I could definitely feel a difference in power though

wats the big deal about noise.. its not ricey..if u got a system u wont hear it.u want ur car to growl when ur floor it anyways..ur intake will be louder than ur ex. if ur mufflers stock

Y with stock exhaust. Nice growl and quiet

Y with aftermarket exhaust = pretty loud

Y with aftermarket exhaust with 2000+ maxima muffler = perfect

I have a 91 GXE that supposedly has a WSP Y-pipe on it but I don't know how to visually tell. What should I look for to be certain, since I might be parting my car out or selling it?

Y with cutout open and stock exhaust = LOUDEST!

Y with cutout closed and stock catback = PERFECT!

I agree i have the SS ypipe and im pretty happy with it. It does give it a little more growl, but i also had other mods to the exuast at that point. You will be happy with the product.

bump... none of you can answer this?

Here is a pic I had on my computer... the top Ypipe is the stock one. The bottom one is an aftermarket one that will look almost identical to WSP's Ypipe.

Bouncer, so does it have an aftermarket Ypipe? I am guessing no.

CamryKilla

would it be a good decision to just get the y-pipe and put on the 2000+ exhaust from the cat-back?

Can somebody please post a link for more information on the group deal. Also does the group deal include y-pipes for the VE?? thanks

anyone else notice you can cruise at say 75 mph @ 3k rpm and after the Y install at 75 its only at 2.8k rpm? Is that pretty normal?

Sounds like your y pipe is playing head games with you

vwink182

iTrader: (2)

Nope, serioulsy runs about 200 rpm lower with the Y on.

thumpyls

y is that maybe more air is leaving thru the exhaust..does ur car idle the same..any vibration..power come w. a price,u should be able to get more power now thru the rpm's power band then.

subs1000w

if your car is an auto maybe but if its a stick nnnnnnnnooooooooooooo way in he11

vwink182

Well it's stick. I have no hard proof for it, but it is seriously lower. When I go home on the interstate I always set my cruise at 3k rpm....which was 75 mph. Ever since I put my Y on when I set it 3k I am running ~77-78 mph.

I have no idea why this is and can't explain it. I have the same tires and sme set up as before except for the WSP Y. Who knows.
