i was looking to get a Y-Pipe and I was looking at the stillen one thats on their website and they got it really expensive. Does anyone know which one is the best one to get. I also heard warpspeed is a real good one too. let me know thanks

 

I dont think it really matters a y pipe is a y pipe

 

The most expensive one is the best, always.

 

All the same in terms of performance +/- very few hp, some are equal length tubes, some arent, I;ve had both, cant say tehy feel any different, but if you have a lot of salted roads in your are during the winter time or live near the ocean. .., might want to opt for a SS unit.

 

whats an SS unit? cuz i live in NY and its crazy salty durin the winter.

 

if i were you i'd go with budget

 

SS means stainless steel, I live in NY too, def. need SS

 

oh ok thanks alot

 

Don't know about that... I live in Wisconsin.

Stock exhaust is still in good shape (stock exhaust is NOT SS). Just had to have new exhaust hangers put on though. Replaced the Y-Pipe with a Warpspeed in the GD for the performance, but the stock one just looked old - no bad rust.

So, after six years and 185,000 miles... the stock exhaust still functions and looks fine. You can spend the money on the SS if you want, but I wouldn't bother.

 

budget is best bang for your buck... go to the group deals section they sometimes have em cheap

 

I have a warp speed Y-pipe and i was very pleased with the performance that i got. However, if you want to get a stillen Y-pipe; PM me; I get Stillen parts at cost. Being an authorized dealer has benefits.

 

which y pipe brands are the quietest? i've heard that some will give u that dreaded bees-in-a-can sound, while others will not.

 

cuz u'll get more horses...

 

Cattman Y is probably the best QUALITY made Y-pipe but should give aruond the same gains as all the others.

 

i have warpspeed and i love mine, it didnt give me any prob yet and it sound deep and nice.

 

ok, so im now down to a warpspeed SS and a cattman SS, what makes cattman better than warpspeed, i know that the gains are pretty much the same. and finally which one is quieter?

thanx in advance

 

The Cattman says "Cattman" on the box... and the Warpspeed says "Warpspeed" on the box. That is the main difference in price.

Save yourself 100 bucks and get the Aluminized Y-Pipe - use the 100 bucks you saved to get an aluminized B-Pipe for an extra handful of horsepower.

I have the Warpspeed and it added a very slight growl to my exhaust, but it is barely noticeable.

 

I like the growl with the warpspeed (wsp). It's not highly noticeable, but it's there. I was in on the wsp group deal and got the y-pipe for $160 shipped. I have seen other posts where people called wsp and got the same price outside of the group deal, so it may be worth a call. I didn't go with SS even though I live in Chicago. The aluminized steel will be plenty fine.

www.warpspeedperformance.com is their address.

 

Stillen Y pipes are Bad !! Bees in a can sound, anyone with one can tell you. I, however, custom fabricated a Cattman Y for my turbo setup and the car sounds even quieter than stock, wierd. But bang for the buck is Budget. I heard its pretty much the same quality as Cattman's. Hope this helps.

 

thanx for the info, i think i do need a SS pipe though b/c i live on LI, and winters are bad here.

 

oh wow nice. how does the cattman sound right outta the box?

 

I was thinking about switching to cattman...recently my budget has that dreaded "bees" sound and it's driving me crazy.

Most of any y will get that "bees" sound you just have to keep up with the maintainence of that pipe.

 

does everyone go w/the b-pipe as well? i just picked up a ypipe and wondered what gains/benefits will follow with the b pipe.
