I just put in my stillen SS y pipe, and the noise really isn't an issue at all, if you have a CAI or pop charger intake, the sound of that will definitely overpower any noise that the Y pipe makes.

I think they are all loud unless you have the stock catback. The stock muffler seems to quiet it down. I have heard that having the aftermarket catback exhaust makes the y -pipe very loud.

If you can wait a little bit on your purchase, the Warpspeed y-pipes with the lined flex section look VERY good. There should be some prototypes coming shortly, keep your eyes on the board, results tend to show up here fast.

I can guarantee that mine is the loudest.

I've got a warpspeed Y-pipe with a leaking flex section. It sounds like a loud weed wacker. I've been trying to get the problem fixed, and warpspeed has promised over and over, but no results (and it's been over two months)

The new pipes do look good, but just hope that you don't have trouble with it, cause they'll never come through on fixing it.

I've given up on that company and I've decided to buy a cattman pipe. There is no way it can be worse than the Warpspeed Y-pipe.

just do ya know..

i had the same type of problems with cattman over something else.. i was gonna get the warpspeed until i read your post in my other thread explaining your problems. so, decided to go with the stillen instead. but, its my fault for even ordering something from a company that consists of like 2 people and expecting them to do the rite thing when a problem arises. your post made me think of warpspeed the same way. true, stillen might be a lil on the expensive side, and the people answering the phone have the intelligence of a shoe, but they can afford to make right when something goes wrong. in my opinion its better if the company has to eat a few bucks and in return gain a loyal customer. if cattman had done the rite thing, i woulda spent the $996 bucks i blew for an exhast on his stuff, not including the CAI im gonna buy.. oh well.. his loss.. not mine
