all y-pipes have their flaws:

cattmans: $350
wsp: reported bees in a can; bad flex section
budget: idk...
stone racing: idk... new i guess

some say get the cheapest but i would really like to know how the longevity of most of them are...

wsp is the one i've heard the most problems about, not one from cattman, and i don't recall any from budget...

i have a poll on your favorite y-pipe if will help sway your decision at all...

So $200 for Budget, which is Stainless Steel and/or $160 for Warpspeed which is NOT Stainless Steel. Can/will the Warpspeed rust quickly, or does it take 5-10+ years or more to eventually rust?

ya know, the more I read about y pipes, the more I want one....The question is- will it void my warranty? I still have a year left on mine.
