Outta the game for awhile, need Y-pipe advice

Hello all need some advice. I plan on buying a Y-pipe for my Cali spec 2K1. Should I go with the new Cattman or is that overpriced? Any opinions are appreciated.

Cattman seems to have a better flex section for their new pipe....I am not sure if they still butt welded the pipe or not. but the flex section problem is now solved, according to Cattman.


Stillen....they now have a new design and they relocate the flex section to the middle of the pipe, similar to stock. check out my page and I have a picture of the new pipe. Stillen pipe is powder coated, which is better to trap temperature and which means EGT reading will be more consistent. I heard they also use the new flex section instead of the tradition meshwire type.

we are still waiting for warpspeed......

Jay, I just might do that. I need to talk to you about your service manager, my Sheehey Manassas rep is a d*ck, always harassing me. Please PM me your phone #.

From what I have gathered you seem to be the only person with a WSP Y, do they make a cali spec one and were can I get it? Or should I just go with the budget Y for $160?

Dixit, I hope everything worked out ok with your car getting broken into.
