you have to donate to search. This is a pretty common question though and it really depends on how much you want to spend. General consensus around here is Cattman is best, coming in around $350. For about $170 you can get a Budget, which is 2nd best imo. I've read more threads about fitment issues on the Warpspeed (was $170 in a GD, but aluminized not stainless) than I have the budget.

Cattman. Long story very short: I have a Cattman Ypipe and ran another 2k2 Max (but stock) and he didnt have the midrange I have. I love this Ypipe.

Screw the Ypipe...just get headers and you will get the y pipe with it. Hotshot sells the headers for like 550-600!!!

2000 max - ypipe is best bang for the buck, 2002+ headers are the best bang for the buck. I got WarpSpeed and its great. For 2002+ ypipe and especially WS is not great (do a search if you can).

i have the warpspeed that i got for $160. no fitment problems and no other problems with it so far.

and to clear things up....performance wise, ALL y-pipes are the same.
only diffirence is the quality of the actualy pipe. (aluminized vs stainless)

Check the classified 5th generation ads, there are Y-pipes for sale in there from time to time. That's where I bought mine, for $40 !!
