Budget Y-pipe special
Hey guys, i just called lss exhaust(budget) and they told me that Stainless steel y-pipe is $200 instead of $250. THe special started today and will be going on for maybe 2 weeks. She was not sure on how long they will keep it at that price, so i'll be ordering it tomorrow for sure. Ohh and it comes with a free test pipe if you want it. you guys can call them at
905-681-9502 if u can't find their info. I figured some of you might jump on it.

On 17 Aug 2006, 200 Canadian dollar(s) = 179.14 U.S. dollar(s), at an exchange rate of 0.8957 (using nominal rate.)
I'm thinking about it...
Noob Question: What is a test pipe? What are the gains? Is it loud?

Y-pipe - An aftermarket Y-pipe is the best bang for the buck power upgrade for the Maxima. You can see gains of 10-15 HP just by replacing the stock Y-pipe. The stock Y-pipe contains two pre-cats and many restrictive bends, a smooth flowing aftermarket pipe is a huge improvement. Technically replacing your y-pipe is illegal (in most states) because it removes emissions equipment, but since the pre-cats are only necessary until the main cat warms up you should pass emissions testing if your car is warmed up first. Prices range from $200-400 and are available from Warpspeed Performance, Cattman Performance, Budget, and Stillen. There are many opinions on what company is best, search and decide for yourself.
I've got the Budget Y and B pipe with a 14" Magnaflow resonator and stock muffler. I get very stock noise levels and when you punch it you get a nice growl.

The stock B pipe is pinched to half of the pipe diameter right after the resonator.

No pay attention to what my first post says. I asked what a test pipe is (not a y-pipe), if it gaves gains, or makes a louder noise. You told me it replacest the cat, but I would like more info.

Man your gonna make me cry! haha. yes he answered one of the questions about the test pipe. I wanted to know if the test pipe gave any hp gains or made lots of noise. I googled it and it said it improves exhause flow.

Ok I'll ease your pain. You'll gain maybe 1 hp with the test pipe.
As for noise, if you go with a straight through muffler with the Budget Y and 14" resonated B and stock cat it will get stupid, reverberating noisy at 2500rpm +. Having the test pipe in wouldn't make that much difference. Been there, done that.
I'm investigating whether going to a 20" resonator will help quiet things down.

How long is this deal going to be going on? I'm *hopefully* getting my car in this weekend to get a full checkover to see if I'm going to keep it or get a new max, and I don't want to buy it is theres something catastrophicly going wrong with my car.
