I have Intake and Catback Exhaust how much faster will the car be with a y-pipe?

Will the Y-Pipe actually add a noticible difference in performance when added to my Intake, Exhaust setup? How much time would it shave off the 1/4? Are all of these mods really worth the money? How much faster would an Auto Max with Intake, Exhaust, Y-Pipe be than a Stock Auto Max, same year and same amount of mileage? Thanks

Thanks Sprint. Do you think it's worth getting an intake, a y-pipe, and a catback for an auto? I know you're #1 auto hater, but I need to know if it's better to get some mods and enjoy it for a while or buy a new car (which is much more expensive).

I would do the Y pipe first..

if you feel the itch .. then get the CAI.. just bare in mind.. the CAI in the winter months is a totally differnt animal in summer.. in summer the car is slower..

only get the catback for looks and sound
