1/4 mile difference with y pipe?

From what I understand the Y pipe for the 4th generation Maxima makes a huge performance difference. Does anyone know how much it would affect a stock 1995 SE 5 speed from 0-60 and in the 1/4 mile?

Depends on you as a driver, typical is .2-.3 Results vary and it doesnt make THAT much of a "feelable" difference. On a dyno it's normally 12-15 fwhp.

i'd say about .25 seconds is the average gain from adding a ypipe (im talking about 1/4 mile here because 0-60 is an immeasureable time). i personally went from 14.87 to 14.46 from my best stock time to my best y pipe only time, but those runs were made at different tracks and the weather was a bit cooler when i was running with the ypipe also so that surely influenced the results a bit. suffice to say the ypipe gives great gains.
