Cattman Ypipe Problems with Install!?!?!?!?

I was talking to Scott at Acceleration Plus and he was basically saying cattman's ypipes suck.
They only sell stillen's now.
On multiple occassions they couldn't install the pipe because of faulty craftsmanship.
He also told me it takes 3 hours to install a cattman and a hour and a half to install stillen.
Has any one run into this problem?
thanks

Ive been researching Y-Pipes for a few weeks now and I will probably go with Cattman due to the many satified customers on this forum...


BTW for $420 it better not be faulty.

Not all cars are made the same and no my cattman took 45min to install and my mechanic said it was the best fitting pipe he ever saw and he does lots of modding on local cars! FUDGE STEALiN that **** will rust throughout in a year.

Anybody know what a good price to pay a mechanic to install it is?

I've called a few places and I'm hearing 1.5 to 3 hrs at $60 to 70.
Sounds like $150 if everything goes well.

well on my 95 it fit perfectly and i paid my mechanic $50 which i think is pretty decent, nissan quoted me $200 to install i spit in their face and left tread marks on their lot. I wish i could have salvaged the pipe from my 95, I can't wait to get another one for my 97, Cattman all the way.

I had warpspeed and it fit perfectly.

I replaced it with a Cattman and it needed a little elbow grease, but it went on with a few extra minutes of manipulation.
Look around, you should be able to get the install done for less than $100.
