What are your thoughts with the Budget Y Pipe?

Can you feel the gains (if any)?

Do you smell burnt gasoline in your car (have you ever) since the y pipe install?

Recommend or not?

Thanks

 

I am very pleased with my Budget Y-Pipe which I am running with just my Place Racing Intake which is currently in the warm air setup

I definitely felt gains once I reset the ECU (unplug battery for awhile) and waited a few days and ever since (in mid-upper rpm range)

I haven't smelled burnt gasoline since the y pipe install.

 

Had one on my 4th Gen great power gains, can't beat the bang for buck, but I think that pertains to any y pipe on a 3.0. I did develope "bees in the can" after approx 1 year but I was def a minority on that score. If you can get install under $100 I'd pay as old heated and rusted bolts are a B*^&h to get off, most of mine had to be heat burn't off!. Good luck.

 

where can i get a good y pipe at a good price?

 

Cattman >> budget.

Pay a little extra for one that is better quality and gets no bees in a can.

 

 

i have installed one and the fitment was off. it didn't really line up on the manifolds and it rubbed against the tunnel. i would recomend a warpspeed. that's what i had till i did my headers(which have been a pain in the a$$, don't ask). the price was good, got it quick, and everything lined up. that's my .02

 

Budget Y-pipe has great gains. Quality is good and you are local so you can get it installed also. I got y and b-pipe done. After time though as someone mentioned, the "bee's in a can" sound will get annoying. I hate it, but love the gains.

 

No bees here and I've had my y-pipe for over 2 years, almost 3. I have a custom exhaust system so it helped with the noise. No smells, love the gain, and my car acutally has a throaty sound. Every meet I've been to the people loved the sound.

 

total noobie here with a question...

What's the point of the Y-pipe? How does it enhance performance?

 

Sound is amazing!!!! Especially when accompanied with an intake. The bee's in the can go away but its there during pull off. Also I may add the quality on mine is great. 2 years and it is still shiney as the day I bought it, Well a bit has faded but not much at all.

 

anyone know of a link to a good quality Y-Pipe? I been looking around but cant seem to find one... Any good links?

And what do you mean bees in a can? anyone have a video clip I would like to hear it please =)
