What do you think?

Ok so I put winter tires on about a month ago and you know how it is, they cant help but recommend a billion things your car needs done to it. So I knew I had an exhust leak somewhere and they say I need a new resonator and muffler... fine whatever.

My thoughts are this, if Im gonna be replacing stuff down there I might as well throw on the Y pipe and an aftermarket muffler. Now, where does the resonator fall into the system, is it after the Y pipe? Also, I wanted a Borla muffler but they didnt have'em for a 95 on the site, it just took me to some universal ones. What's the scoop on that? Finally, If i were to bang this all out in one shot Im thinking I might save some $ in labor. How much would you expect to pay for labor replacing all three things?

Thanks guys!

it goes like this front to back- exhaust manifold, Ypipe, Cat converter, Bpipe(resonator), Muffler.



Universal means you need a shop to weld it on.

Warpspeed Stainless Y-pipe & Hi-flo Cat, Greddy SP2 Catback.. Its all bolt-on.
About an hour to install if you have access to a lift. Probably four if you dont.. The header to ypipe bolts and the o2 sensors will give you some trouble.

What about the Borla exhust? Also, I have heavey hesitation when the car is cold? couldd that be the precats in the Y pipe?
