Prices for y-pipes?

 

250-400 depending on the brands.
cattman, wsp, stillen are all good.
Budget makes one too.

best of luck

 

Holy carp, thats a big fish to swallow. But is this the Best and single most important upgrade?

 

performancewise..people say its the best for the money.

 

is there a diff in performance with diff brands? or they all the same

 

I got a stillen y pipe $290 shipped (actually $289) but im happy with it I love the thing.

 

What is the difference in the stock Y pipe and the aftermarket?
Is the after market wider?

 

Care to let a brother know where. Or was it a inside deal?

 

Yeah, is there an aftermarket one with equal or better quality then stock?

 

someone gives us some info man, and tell us which manufacturers u guys have and if there is a difference between them cause i'm a cheap guy, if they all work the same, u know me.....

 

if im not mistaken, theres about four companies makin y pipes rite now. stillen, cattman, budget and warpspeed. if youre going for the name and stainess steel wtuever..get cattman..its pretty good. not too many bad responses on stillen ether i dont think..budget and warpspeed...i dunno.

 

nope i just called stillen and he said that they were on sale so i bought it. I recieved it about 3days later.

 

Stillen has it on their site for $395 (but you can get lower) and Cattman has on their site for $400. Im not gonna say Warpspeeds price for the 5th gen because IT DOESN'T EXIST

 

As far as quality, the Cattman is the only one which is 100% stainless steel so it will tend to resist rust/corrosion the longest. It is also the most expensive. There is no performance difference between brands.

You can purchase either 2.5" y-pipe's or 3" y-pipe's. The 3" would only really be your choice if you are boosted (supercharger). You are replacing the stock y-pipe which includes pre-cats intended to help reduce CO emissions from your exhaust and meet ULEV and NLEV requirements for low emissions. The aftermarket y-pipe's eliminate those pre-cats and provide for a more freely breathing exhaust. Once your engine is warmed up, the stock catalytic converter can handle keeping your car within the legal limits so you will pass an emissions test with the aftermarket y-pipe.

 

Non supercharged, should I just go with 2.5, or will the 3 get me more hp?

 

Get the 2.5
If you get the 3" you'll probably lose power due to not enough exhaust flowing. Boosted engines have more exhaust flow, which a 3" pipe is good for.

 

what i thought.

 

that's all i needed to know...now all I need to know is

<h1> HOW IT LOOKS</h1>

someone please post a pic

 

The 2.5". I think its accurate to say that the 3" would relieve too much backpressure and without forced induction (like a supercharger), you would loose a great deal of torque without that pressure. The 2.5" is intended for non-forced induction applications.

 

I talked with warpspeed today and they have 5th gen y-pipes. they said prices are the same as the 4th gen. fed spec avail. on the 8th and cali spec soon after.

 

you guys know any websites or got any numbers I can call?

I've been trying to find a y-pipe cheap but haven't been able to.

Thanks!

 

everyones number is on there web page under the link section. go to aftermarket parts then look up the company...catman, stillin, budget or warpspeed. I think warpspeed is the cheapest.
