which Warpspeed y pipe?

Hello, I decided to go with a mandrel bent WS y pipe. Is it worth the extra $$ to get the SS over the aluminized one? I plan to keep the car for a long time and I want the pipe to last. Thanks.

Well i dont think it personally matters, since all exhaust systems from the factory are NOT SS treated and last 100K+ miles. But if you want that extra piece of mind, get SS...

WS has a 4 year rust through warranty on the alumuminized regardless of where you live. If I wasn't such a cheap b@stard i'd buy the SS.

I didnt get my y-pipe yet because im low on money so I might go with the aluminumized. When I order my WP y-pipe I am going to get the B-pipe also so I get the $25 off. How long has everyone have their aluminum y-pipe...did it rust any?

i talked to Dallas at WSP a few weeks ago about SFC's and he told me about some specials he was running for the month of december.

go with the WSP SS MIG welded y-pipe. they were having a sale in december on that y-pipe. normally it is $275.00 and he was letting them go for $245.00
$30 bucks off.

245 for SS MIG vs. 200 for aluminized (your call)

try calling WSP 866-801-9338 and ask for Dallas (owner). let him know you are on maxima.org, that way if the sale ended he might still give u the sale price.

if you don't want to spend a lot of cash ask him if he has any good used
y-pipes he wants to get rid of. i am sure he has several laying around taking up space. he will probably let those go for cheap.

good luck
