Where to buy Budget Y-Pipe?

I just got my 2000 SE and I am looking for the best Y-Pipe I can get for decent price. I can't really afford a Cattman right now and although I've only been on the org for a month, I have already read too many horror stories on Warpspeed. My friend (Kevlo911 on here) has a budget and said it was the best bang for the buck. Since the search is down, I was wondering if I could get some links or anything as to where I can order one. I forgot where Kevlo said he got his, and I can't get up with him right now.

Oh and I'm also wanting to buy a Place Racing intake.. Instead of making another thread I'll just ask about that in here too. I will settle for a knock-off, but I am not real sure the difference between the place racing "style" compared to Injen and the usual ones from e-bay. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I realize this is a roughly six year old thread, but I've searched and this is the most recent thread. I've been looking everywhere and can't figure out where/how to go about buying a budget y-pipe. Anyone with any info please let us know.

the warpspeed y pipe looks great and gives you great gains, ive had mine installed for about 3 weeks now and I love it, crazy how it can make such a big difference.

But I will say the shop charged me $150 in labor to install it because there were some fitment issues(I tried to install it first myself but I couldn't do it because the fitment wasn't good.) I don't think that's too much considering everything though...

i've read that the budget y-pipes fit great and came in various materials, including stainless steel, all for much cheaper than other companies.
I'm looking for the best, cheapest way to replace my y.

Edit: Pic removed. Wrong picture.

Pretty sure that's the creature right there. Or maybe that's the Warpspeed. I found this pic on Google, but I'm pretty sure I've seen this pic floating around the org in the past.

I don't think the Budget Y's made anymore, though. Although, I have seen similar y-pipes on eBay with "shorty" headers, as in the same kind of headers CustomMaxima sells...

Sorry. I was wrong about that pic. That's the warpspeed y-pipe for a 3rd gen. As such, I'm going to delete it so I don't mislead people.
