Well, i got the Cattman CAI which is exaclty the same as the PR CAI as far as I know, and i just put in a Warpspeed Y-pipe, cheap but built very well. I can't say anything about the others cause i have never had it but my set up is very sweet pull very hard, and i would recomend this setup to anyone, great bang for the buck.

to the original poster.. i have a pr cai and a stillen y pipe. as far as y-pipes go, its really what name you want. i choose the stillen because it comes in two peices and is suppose to be a lil easier it install. also, because my enitre exhaust was stillen so id like to the same vendor. i can tell ya that the install went pretty smooth and i can say it was worth the money. only other difference is that the stillen is not made from the same steel as some of the others so it will eventually rust (in about 10 yrs) as far as intakes go, the cattman intake and pr intake are the same thing. cattman sells the place racing intake just with different clamps through some kind of deal they worked out. i paid 230 for my intake through a group deal and waited about 3 weeks for it. personally, if i could do it over again, i would get the one from warpspeed. it is almost identical to the pr, but uses a generic filter instead of a k&n. it also only costs about 165 bucks for the same benefits.

one more thing.. i forgot you were looking for the cheapest combo.. the cheapest combo for both would be a budget y-pipe, and the warpspeed cai. i dont think theres any way you'd be able to tell the difference as far as performance goes if you bought the more expenisive stuff.

wsp stuff

Just for the record. Our non-mandrel bent y-pipe is $195. It comes with our newest lined flex, gaskets, lazer cut flanges. Shipping adds about $12. I am not sure if you pay shipping with Budjet or not. Ours are welded by a certifed welder== Dallas.My guess is we have the lowest price, please correct me if I am wrong.

if you decide u want stuff from warpspeed i suggest u order it soon because they took a while to respond to my emails for some reason. at the time they did not have online ordering, i dont know if thats changed or not.

i think the cheapest CAI would be the Poorman's CAI. Run a search on that...you can "do it yourself"

CAI and Y combo are very nice. Then you should get a high flow cat and an exhaust system. Just the CAI and Y will make you have a **** grin on your face every time you drive though
