I am Going to Purchase a Y-pipe. Yet, i have hear good things about all the Y-pipes, Does anybody know Which is the best Suited for the 4th Gen Maxima?

Measure Only: HP Gain, Endurance
-Price doesn't matter

-----Best Y-pipe-----
Which Name Brand takes the lead?

 

From what I hear Budget Y pipes are the best bang for the buck. I intend on getting one asap. I think I speak for a lot of members when I say go with a Budget Y. Good luck...

i agree. Budget is the best for the buck!

 

Where can I buy The Budget Y-pipe? What is a good price for it?

 

You can only buy them one place http://www.budgetexhaust.com/ price is around $250 Cdn or approx $180 US$ for T-304 SS Mandrel Bent. Deal of the century. Plus it makes my car go fast.

 

Its worth it! Comes with gaskets too!

 

its true budget is good (I HAD one) but after one winter here in kansas it rusted pretty bad. I did the same things as you shopped/asked around and went to Dallas over at warpspeedperformance.com and got that one. I have had it for a year and a half and it still looks almost new (a few scratches here and there, driving through a field long story). It retails for $200 plus $20 shipping

 

Budget stopped making those aluminized steel ones that Wrapspeed sells over 2 years ago. I had on of Budget's SS T-304 for 2 winters here in Canada and not a mark on it. You are not convincing. Budget has not only the best pipe but the best price.

Budget's Stainless Steel pipe is $180 INCLUDING shipping.

 

ahh i remember when it was 160 shipped. Canadian dollar went up.....( thats what i got mine for)

 

Warpspeed or budget... I'd spend the extra bux on warpspeed bc of the name.. I mean someones like what kinda down pipe u got (y pipe).. and u say Budget... u will get laughed at. Just dish out the few extra bucks for it...

 

They don't laugh at me when they see the time on the clock. I even wear their T-Shirt I was given for being a good customer and tell folks how good the product and service is.

The only person laughing is Dallas when he takes your money.

 

....budget is the best, good performance and sounds great

 

now i see why ur nickname is "image" "image is nothing,..." performance "...is everything" budget is by far the best

 

Who cares about a name or what people think, i care about performance. And if a Budget Y-pipe performs just as good as a Warpspeed for less i see no reason not to buy it.

 

you can always lie and say its warpspeed.

 

lol true. lie! Fawk it im goin with budget! haha!

 

Thanks for the Help Guys, you really answered the question and made my mind clear. This friday when I recieve my paycheck I'm calling up Budget! I think the only bad thing I've heard about these Budget people is they don't accept Discover Card.

 

Either way, you're going to get the 10hp at the wheels. Like I said, the only reason I bought the Warpspeed is because of the 4 year rust through warranty. Good deal.

 

Before i bought mine I researched this to death.I had my mind set on the warpspeed but after researching and found the gains are the same , it made no since to spend that extra money for nothing. I got the budget and have no regrets! Get the budget and use the xtra cash for more mods!

 

Budget from what I hear!!! Get stainless steel so it doesnt rust!

 

I have a warpspeed and love it but i hear budget is good too.

 

which one is quieter...warpspeed or budget......and are cattman or stillen any good?

 

I wanna laugh at you.

 

hey hey. Dont bash my opinion. Just the way i feel. I never dissed anyone on this forum, I would atleast expect the same courtesy from others.

 

Stillen is loud, bee's n a can. Havent heard about cattman, prbly not as good. Budget and Warpspeed are somewhat quiter, and have a non bee's in a can sound. Just go with budget, basically the same thing. Plus ive heard just as many good reviews as the Warpspeed.

 

yo 95 -99 warpspeed y pipe foa 200 on ebay... dats da one i hab on mai car, no rust, made mai exhaust a lil louder too... be sure to use gasket sealent on either if u dunt want flies in a can sound.

 

Stillen Y pipe here. Great Quality, strong gauged piping that wont easily leak or bend.

 

so you are saying to use gasket sealant on the bolts on the pipe, or what?

 

anything that helps free flow the exhaust will work. My ignorance I bought a Cattman but it is a good quality Ypipe. A budget is just as good and getst the job done

 

I'd go with Stillen, if you can dish out the cash. I got the stillen Y-pipe with straight racing pipe and greddy cat-back. I don't hear the bees in a can that everyone talks about either. But I guess it's all up to you. Plus stillen is all SS. Good luck!

 

 

name brand dont mean ****, as long as it gets the job done

 

Jesus everyone hop off. I took that back. You guys are right. I was just saying stupid ****.

 

if I came off the wrong way my apologies, you alright!

 

i have wrap....and man!!! it helps to down 1.098 second on 1/4 mile with my autotragic.

 

Get the Budget exhaust. All y-pipes give about the same gains but Budget costs WAY less than any of the others. It is also made of T304 SS and is mandrel bent.

They also include gaskets but I would trash the y-pipe - cat gasket as soon as I get it. I already blew that gaskets 3 times (everytime I went to the track). Budget told me that is because of my motor mounts wearing out. However I went and spent the money on Nissan gaskets and you can see the difference in quality... and I have never blown a gasket at the track since I got the Nissan gasket back on. However I think their header - y-pipe gasket is fine. No problems there for me so far.

 

Get the Stillen there is no "Bees in a can sound" whoever says that obviously never had a Stillen Y pipe. Trust me I got the Stillen Y pipe with a Random Technologies High Flow Cat and GReddy SP2 catback and the sound is low and deep there and its definately not a fart can sound either Stillen does cost a bit more but it's well worth it just my 2¢

I have not tried the Stillen y-pipe so I cannot compare directly, but what makes Stillen "well worth it," at double the price of the Budget y-pipe? Just curious...

 

Budget Y-pipe all the way for its price

 

1. It's SS. 2. It gives a deep tone 3. No matter what emissions set up you have it doesnt need to be modded 4. I have one
