Y pipe on ebay?

Does anyone have any experience with this? My stock cat just rotted away and I need to replace the cat and the pipe before it...Monroe quoted me $$$750.00 to replace it!!!! YIKES

Can I just by this Y pipe off ebay? It looks much better than getting the restrictive stock y-pipe again. I assume I would need new O2 sensors. My Max is a 1995.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks guys...

you dont have to have new o2 sensors unless theres something wrong with the old ones. ive heard nothing but good come from warpspeeds products.

save the money- install it yourself.

Will it throw any codes since I'll be removing the pre-cats?

Get a Cattman if you want the best quality and never have to worry about it again

you can get a cattman also, but it sounds like you want to spend as little as possible. both are great products, the cattman will be a higher quality. i havent thrown any codes.

ok do you wanna replace your catalyst or you wanna replace your y pipe because its tottaly different things now if you wanna buy a y pipe go to http://www.warpspeedperformance.com/ get the toll free number and tell them you want the maxima.org group deal its 160 SHIPPED. and i got charged 40 to install at a muffler shop. It looked pretty hard to install as i saw alot of welding/cutting action going on but many have done it on there own. now if u need a catalyst u can either get one from warpspeed also or get an oem off ebay.

I'll be replacing the rear catalyst and the y-pipe. I bought the warpspeed off ebay last night for $200. Maybe I'll call them and see about that discount.

Have anyone ever had a problem passing inspection with this pipe? I would assume as long as I don't go to the stealership it would pass...they would know to look for the pre-cats.

definitley get rid of your stock, you will enjoy a non-restricting y-pipe, and the y-pipe that nick got.. really lloks like ****.. there are like 6 different parts welded together, and the welds dont look to strong... and from what he has told me, its completely quiet, just get the regular one i like the sound that mine gave me.. nice and throaty, makes it sound like an actual V6
