buget Ypipe.
#3
are you using the 4th gen manifolds or 5th gen manifolds? the 5th gen manifold has the pre cats built into it, so the gains wont be as good compared with the 4th gen manifold. The 4th gens pre cats are built into the y-pipe so replacing the y-pipe with an aftermarket gives gains similar to headers on a 5/5.5gen. I believe on my y-pipe(CP) it was 2.5" but then again i never really measured it. A 2.5" catback is more then sufficient for a N/A engine, anything larger will result in a loss of low/mid end power.
as for power gains, if your using the 4th gen manifolds id expect similar gains, maybe a little more, if your using the 5th gen manifold id expect less maybe 8-10WHP?
