i went to a garage today and asked him if he could change the y-pipe for my car (which is automatic ) and he said that its not good installing a aftermarket (stillen, budget etc..) y-pipe on a automatic tranny ... he was not too sure of what the f*ck he was saying, so now i am asking to all the pro of .org.. IS IT TRUE that aftermarket y-pipe like stillen or budget are not good for automatic cars???

 

Do me a personal favor go back to that monkey and b!tch slap him for me.....I have a 95 GXE AUTO (welcome to the club) and I have a my Warpspeed Y-Pipe.....My car hasn't broke down since.....Don't worry place the order and enjoy

 

No, it is not true, and he has no idea what he is talking about.

 

i have the stillen y-pipe for over 2 yrs with no problems.

go to another shop.

 

Why the hell would your transmission have anything to do with wether or not you could install a downpipe? Your "mechanic" should be thrown off a cliff and chopped into little peices.

But seriously, what the F does a pipe that connects your upper manifolds to your cat have to do with your tranny? You should be able to logically come to that conclusion on your own.

 

He must be one of those "all mods hurt your car" people. Had one on my auto for about 4 years now and she's still in one piece.

 

Go slap that fool and goto another shop.. and then go back to that shop and slap him again..

 

wow...what a complete moron

 

tell me about it, I went to this shop to get my alignment done (because I have a free tire balance coupon with them) and I ask the guy how much to replace the ypipe; and he was looking at the thing for 10 sec then ask me why I wan to change it cuz it still looks good. I told him it will give me more performance, he disagreed, then told me I shouldn't do it because of this and that. He even said it's hard to take it off and replace

I love my warpspeed by the way, and mine is auto

 

a lot of those guys lie to keep you from doing anything illegal. "um yea...300 dollars to change that intake" trans has nothing to do with exhaust on this car, on some others yea it can change the bends etc...no worries

 

Dont be so quick to judge if you dont know the whole story.

Maybe the mechanic didnt want to take your job... Many mechs are textbook schooled and dont know much about the aftermarket nor deal with the hassle of return customers due to misinstallation.

 

auto maximas w/ y-pipes are common.

 

people like that should not work on cars

 

"The "Y" pipe comes with a few warnings: it substantially increases and changes noise levels of both the exhaust and the interior. It should not be used with automatic cars that have the STILLEN supercharger fitted." --- you dont have a supercharger, do ya?

 

why not with an S/C?

 

awe man ...another wanna be mechanic gets owned !

HA HA !

Maxima.org Members mechanic

 

after i installed my Y pipe form WArsp man!!! i really felt the power after 3000rpms. I went to track and i beat a 300zx, sir, ser without any problem.
I dont know that kind of people says always sh...t like that...bla bla bla bla about mod.

 

GET YOUR CAR THE ƒÜ©k away from that crock of $#!7. That would be like calling up Circuit City and asking if they have replacement flux capacitors for amps, and then taking your car in after they say yes.

Always judge a mechanic by his basic knowledge.

 

I hate people like that. Do it yourself and don't let people tell you ya can't.

 

do it man!!!

 

well...he said you couldnt put in an aftermarket pipe. he didnt say it was hard, or he didnt know... he lied

 

Yeah....ditto

No hate, just clarification

 

Uh uh uh :

As long as you use your stock muffler you're fine.

 

"your message must be.....blah blah"

 

stock muffler quiets everything down... and can help when using a Y pipe, straights instead of cat or B pipe, etc.

 

How come you cant have a y-pipe with an S/C???
