Opinion on y-pipe

I was thinking about getting the cattman y-pipe I just wanted some opinions. Preferably people who have same year as me. What kind of perfomance, noise level stuff like that. Thanks.

All ypipes give the exact same ammount of hp gains. If you want one, just buy the cheapest one you can find like warpspeed or budget. The only reason you should spend the extra money on a cattman or another SS pipe is if you life in a state where it snows.

Budget stainless steel y-pipe and spend the difference on Christmas presents or bills.

I'm not exactly sure but it's some type of a pipe that makes a Y shape. I have yet to see one and I'm very curious as to what it actually does. Maybe it's for the air conditioner? I don't know...
