[Full header/y-pipe price minus price paid for y-pipe already = price of manifolds.]

You're not an MB owner, but you're not a Hyundai owner either. Keep in mind you get what you pay for - our higher prices result from our no-compromise approach to parts design and fabrication, not excessive profits.

As far as design vs cattmans, I'll be the first to admit, Brians pipe "should" technically flow slightly more, not better. It is a very nice and well engineered piece. That said, concidering the state of tune most cars here are going to see, they are likely to not ever realize the potential of that y pipe. Mainly because 90% of the cars that will buy y pipes will never use anything more than basic bolt ons, while most still just an intake. And that is the reason for my decision to produce the y pipe using the chosen design. It still greatly improves flow over stock and as you can see actually makes slightly better hp than cattmans http://www.6thgenmaxima.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=2754. And costs less overall to produce.

Emissions....... Yes the ypipe (both mine and brians) will delete the downstream cat, but to the best of my knowledge nobody with a properly running car has ever failed emissions testing so long as the 2 precats are still in place and warmed up. I fact from the numbers I have personnaly seen, overall emissions were barely over normal levels and still within acceptable limits. state to state does vary but from what i have seen passing is not an issue. It is technically illegal to remove a working catalitic converter, I assume this is brians reasoning fro giving an option of adding a metal core cat. I'd very much like to see a dyno of a cattman y pipe with cat becasue even though metal cores are excellent for flow they still add a certain amount of restriction, to pay $500+ for 5hp.........................

Headers..... generally speaking if both y pipes are made to mount to stock headers and cattman headers are made to mount to his y pipe, then BOTH ypipes should fit cattman headers very very little issue if any.

I think thats it for now.
