I wanted to know what the real differences if any between the Cattman Y pipe n the Stillen one? I used to have a cattman (never installed it) and I noticed it was straight while the stillen (I have that now going to install it) is kinda curvey. Does that make a difference? As for sound I have a greddy evo 1 exhaust system, so how will it sound? I don't wanna lose the throaty noise. Anyway let me know!

Thanks!

 

cattman: stainless steel
stillen: ceramic coated mild steel or aluminized steel (IIRC)

the design will be nothing noticeable in performance

 

As you will notice later the resonator on the Greddy is small. I just ordered a mid/B-pipe from cattman for its big *** resonator. I'm only stating this because I have a Y-pipe installed and It is loud and ricy w/ the greddy.

On another note. I've never heard anyone complian about Cattman parts. I hear a few from Stillen in general. Many say that it is not worth the extra cash. But that is for you to decide. I say Cattman.

 

well i didn't exactly pay for either pipe, right now I have the stillen, I sold the cattman because it was pointless to keep 2 pipes lol.. I just wanted to see if the stillen was any different because of it's design. Thanks..

 

alot of money for the "stillen" name

 

Cattman: Stainless piping with mild steel flanges. They may have updated their design on the flanges but they used to be mild steel.

Stillen: Were offered in two flavors - ceramic coated mild steel and 409 stainless steel. 409 is not bad, it just turns a gold/brown color when it's heated. It's 90% as good as 304.

In my oppinion, the Cattman is probably a better bang for the buck. (Us smaller companies gotta stick together!)

 

Hey whats up Bri? hows everything??
haha Berk is becoming bigger and bigger everyday!

and yeah stillen is way expensive. and full stainless steel is the only way to go if you live where it rains and snows like me
go with Cattman <
-J

 

CATTMAN of course!!!!

 

dood, that bootay is SMOKIN'!!!!!

 

I had the stillen Y on my 2K.... before I knew any better...

flex section had to be replace after a year.... also, looked like a P.O.S. when I removed it....

Cattman all the way!

 

I say Cattman, but I'll say more after my y-pipe gets here and I've actually installed it... but with all the Orgers' opinions on Cattman, ya can't go wrong....

 

Cattman. Quality, fitment, customer service. Nuff said.

 

GO with catman. I havent heard of any fitment issues from either but customer service is great at catman.
