Aaron, thanks for posting up your thoughts! We're running a local group deal for the Budget ypipe's in Toronto and I'm getting mine in 1-2 weeks. If you dyno your car can you post them up? Thanks,

Nathan

 

Hmmmm sure.......i leave for UAE this next week tho......so ill have to do it when i get back. Never really wanted to dyno till now......wonder what i have at the wheels with CAI/Y-Pipe.......its bloody fast ill say.......and for some odd reason i think the Venom 400 pcm actually does something....smoked a crx....b18C motor i think.....

 

How much of an increase in noise did you get? Right now I have a jwt intake and exhaust so will I be able to notice a difference in noise at idle or at regular driving speeds? Thanks,

Nathan

 

Actually just a slight "burble" from exhaust at idle......sounds way cool.....very little raspy or bees in can sound....if so the CAI drowns it out.......chuck that jwt and get a PR CAI......used or new its worth it.......ask people.....when your racing them and they are either next to you, losing or pulling away they still have this look like " WTF does he have in that thing?" Sounds cool at idle as well So over all.......i love the mod......if i had a full cat back it would be louder i suppose.

 

Did you get the SS one or aluminized steel?

 

I believe the 304 SS one.

 

Yeah, it's the SS one.

 

you lucky fools with your installed y pipeS!!
does anyone know if nissan will check out my y pipe if i go in for oil change and 14pt inspection that follows it? i dont remmeber if they look at this stuff. i HATE their bi+¢hing at me

 

I guess Budget doesn't bother promoting their aluminized steel pipe much anymore... that's just fine for folks like us whose cars have to endure road salt!

 

Their website has been down for a long time now. Is Budget Exhaust still alive and in business? I wanted to see how their cat-back is shaping up...

 

I noticed that too. They need to re-establish web-presence. They had a neat dyno chart too of a 4th gen. Max w/ y-pipe, exh., & I thought a hi-flow cat.

 

im very satisfied with my y pipe from budget, the only sound i get is in between the 1-2 shift that just sorta vibrates to a downtone like a blow off valve. i actually like that so i dont care, great for the price

 

Hardly any bees sound and gobs o power......

 

Aaron, I got a quick question that's off topic. How much louder do you think the PR CAI is revving at idle compared to my JWT pop charger? Thanx,

Nathan

 

Probably not much........mine just has a "whooshing air" sound at idle...sounds cool
