yeah it's sedan but has anyone done or thought about doing a straight pipe setup on an 09-10 max?

 

Be more specific. Are you talking about the mid pipe? Headers to the mufflers?

 

replace the cats with straight pipes

 

Are you going to add O2 Simulators?

 

Do you mean the cats that are built into the headers? Or the 3rd unmetered cat on the y-pipe?

 

i did it got a little low end loss but high end rips.....sounds great also nice rumble to it

 

got any videos or sound? I would love to hear how it sounds. Also how does this affect inspections?

 

or sound clips!

 

bump

 

i took off the rear section of the exhaust...right after the rear "y" and drove it around the block....sounds like a WEAK *** Ford V6 F150 at idle...but when you get on it, then you get that nice powerful sound that i would be able to live with, if at idle it didn't sound stupid!

i will take them off again and record it.

 

also there is this other really nice setup that deletes the 3rd unmetered catalytic converter for sale...if anyone has this please give us your $0.02 cents...see link

No one has it, they welded the flange backwards on the first release, they are just now getting ready to release. Do a search you'll find a video clip with this Y pipe.

 

straight pipe might be interesting on the maxi....

 

yea i had both the racingline and the stock one in my hand and comparing the two, racinglines looks promising and looked well made (too bad it had that flange problem), will deff reconsider buying it

 

They should ready by the 26th of Feb +/- a few days. here a pic of the corrected pipe next to a stock 09 Ypipe. Asside formt eh performance gain, Our Pipe is also considerably lighter

 

I'm sold, I'll be ordering one for my Max as soon as they become available...but I have a question, "are you guys coming out with a catback exhaust system to go with this Y-pipe?"
Because I refuse to believe stillen is the only option...

Also, onthe recording I promised...I've been at the hospital (first baby arrived on monday) so hopefully on Thursday I'll do it

 

im in for a group buy!

 

+1

 

looks like a great replacement but appears to be a couple inches longer than the stock unit, wonder if that would cause some fitment issues during the install....

A better sound clip would be much appreciated!!

 

I def want to purchase one w/ a group buy.
I also noticed the size difference in the picture. Is it just the picture that make it look that way or is it really a different size? Has anyone installed one yet?

 

I'm a little confused....what is this going to do for the exhaust? Are we going to get a more throatier sound or just performance? I am looking to get a more "throatier" sound from the exhaust but still have to pass inspection.

The only way I know to do this is hollow out the cats but that's definitly going to mess with emissions.

 

just what I'm looking for although I am questioning the length too what's up with that? it looks a bit longer

 

Optical illusion.

 

Yes you get both, 13 HP, beefier sound, listen to the video. This removes the third cat....

Do you have one and know this for fact ? or are you just making a educated guess because why would the make it longer?

 

Sweet sounds good.

 

Honestly guy, just check the Racingline Website. All your questions will be answered.

 

This Y-Pipe was supposed to be available to purchase today, but it isn't. Has anybody been able to get a hold of them? I e-mailed them and tried to call but nobody answered. I was pretty fired up about buying one today, but now it looks like its not going to be available when they said it was.

 

You can't possibly tell from the angle of that picture that the top of the pipes are even. Since they've already fitted the pipes in testing and R&D I highly doubt it's longer than stock.

 

They're the same size.

The stock one is tilted a few degrees, so it looks shorter

I drew a line in paint from the front flange to the rear flange on the stock one, and it's the same length as the front flange to the rear flange of the Racingline one, but it's tilted.

 

Bummer

 

Any update on this being made available? Just checked their site & still says 26th would have been the release date; not available to order though.

Thanks!

 

They replied to my e-mail today and said that they will be ready to go late Tuesday or Wednesday. The shipment got held up due to weather, they now expect the shipment to arrive Monday, they will inspect them, and turn on the online ordering.

 

1.) is there still talk of a group buy, how many people it will take and how much it will drop the $$?

2.) Anyone know how much MPG is affected?

 

if theres a group buy im in

 

Just wanted to let everyone know that I contacted Taz about a possible group buy and am just waiting on a response from him. I will let everyone know what is going on once I find out and hopefully I can get something going on with a Group Buy just like I did for you all before.

 

great work hopefully you can get us one

 

Ya I'm hoping for it... Haven't received a word from Taz yet but I have faith that they will be kinda enough to offer use a Group Deal.

 

Y pipe is in the building!!!!!!!

They are in our east coast warehouse and going through final inspection and packaging. The website sales has been activated for those of you that wish to order, however they will not likely ship until late monday or early tuesday. Thanks for the patience guys while this was getting done

No GB as they take time to set up, instead we just have an intro price that will stand for 2 weeks

 

has anyone used the stock y-pipe and cut off the CAT and welded on a straight pipe?
