help? headers vs. y-pipe 01 SE

should i get a y-pipe or headers for my 01 maxima. I have heard that on the 02 a y-pipe doesn't do anything, its the headers that help so much. If you think y-pipie is better what kind. I have heard mixed reviews about the budget and the warpspeed. problems with the O2 sensor being to close to the oil pan or something like that

you will get better gains with a y pipe than an 02. completely stock, id say anywhere from 10-12hp. no one currently makes any headers for the 01. some companies have them listed on the website but if you call you will find out they are either in production or never produced. i have a 1st generation cattman y with no problems for a little over a year and a half.

you can get a easy 15-20 hp with y-pipe...
www.custommaxima.com has them and they are pretty well priced

Well of course i mind the rusting. That is why i am thinking about the warpspeed but I am worried that there will be issues about installation(i.e. the O2 sensor being to close to the oil pan)
