which y- pipe and flywheel

I understand that the cattman pipe will give better gains then the budget y-pipe, but at twice the price, do you get twice the gains? how much more power should i expect with the cattman over the budget?


also which is the better fly wheel the fidanza or the unorthodox


thanks for any help

im not sure whether everyone should scold you or not..... you've been a member since november but you only have 46 posts. either way avoid being picked on for being noobish and do a google search, its right in the stickies at the top. there's plenty of threads on these topics. short answer tho...no you don't get twice the gains.

i recommend against budget and say warpspeed. mine fit perfect and gave some good improvement. but like lex3015 said google and search for threads like this one. there are way too many to list, and we get this question about once a day almost. do some work and look for your answers. thanks

the difference is not necessarily the power. The difference is:

1. cattman fitament is good
2. cattman customer service is good
3. cattman pipe is made of STAINLESS steel
4. no bees in a can like some "other" ypipes have

warpspeed i believe is made from aluminized steel while budget offers a cheaper stainless steel alternative to cattman. You'll have to make the decision yourself, as irish said there isn't really a difference in power between the brands

as for the flywheel, fidenza is ready to go at $315 plus shipping from cattman right now. UR is usually in the $400 range plus it doesn't come with the starter ring gear
