Ebay seller "Maximasalvage"

I was looking for a y-pipe for my wifes 4th gen b/c the flex section is busted anyway
and came across this seller on Ebay.Looks to also be a Nissan Tech and in reading they go on to say, " i install these on all the Maximas I work on".
Anyone heard or have had any experiences with this pipe and/or seller? Any opinions?
Heres the link to ebay auction.

Yeah I was leaning towards warpspeed to begin with but I was just curious about these guys and their pipe.It just seems strange that he says he installs an aftermarket pipe on
all cars he works on.

I think its funny he says it adds 20hp. Super honest there. $300 installed might be a good deal. Doesn't mention the brand or anything. Probably is the Ebay brand thats he is talking **** about.

Might as well do those $160 DNA Motoring Headers for that price!!! I might be putting some on my 4th Gen just too try them out really soon! At that price, what do you have to lose?

I've got a better idea! Send me $300 so I can buy you a warpspeed.

A y-pipe almost adds 20whp. That's not an eBay y-pipe.

You really think a Y-pipe adds 20whp? If it did my butt dyno is way off whack. I think or more reliable number is about 12. And I may be completely wrong here but I dont think the 4th gen headers are THAT restrictive. For the hassle it takes to install them Im just not sure its worth it IMO. Theres no sharp 90 degree bends and they arent super small diameter.

For a De-K, a Y-pipe can add up to 20 horsepower. It's one of the best horsepower-per-dollar mods you can do.

I said almost. It depends on the rest of your mod list.
