ah dammit, I'll have to wait for another GD on the Y/B-Pipes. I'm highly interested on the UDP that's currently on GD.

If price is a primary factor get whichever's cheapest.

They're all the same.

ok lets make some things clear, BUDGET HAS NEVER AND PROBABLY WILL NEVER RUN A GD FOR US!!! The prices you see on their websites are in canadian dollars, not US dollars. i personally have tried to set up a GD, showed them that there was a ton of interest, and it never went through, ON THE OTHER HAND, Warpspeed does have a existing "group deal" that i doubt will end any time soon that has been going on for quite some time now for their ALUMINiZED Y-pipe for 160 shipped. If you want to stick with SS than go with the budget(lssexhast) because they have the cheapest SS y-pipe around, if you want aluminized than go with warpspeed(just call and say you are from the org, they will understand)

any other questions just ask

Nice that we are keeping things clear, so on that note.

Budget won't run a GD because they are already selling at their lowest possible price unlike Wrapspeed. However they did offer free shipping.

Budget's standard price for the aluminized pipe is already $160 US ($200 Cdn) the same as Wrapspeed's GD and their SS pipe is $200 US ($250 Cdn).

I don't really have anything against the aluminized pipe but for an extra $40 you can have the Budget Polished SS, your choice.

The one thing I like about the Budget B-Pipe over the others is that you can get it with a resonator or without, or if you want both. That way you can easily swap the resonator in or out just like the Cat if you have a test pipe. I do the same with my straight through muffler as well. So you can go from a really stock sounding setup (great for Grandfathers like me) to a totally straight through mandrel bent system just by unbolting a couple of flanges.

PS Budget has run a group deal, I got my first pipe their a couple of years ago.

Here's a pic of the Budget resonated SS B pipe:


Some discoloration on the pipe is due to the packaging tape but that'll buff out. There's some slight discoloration around the welds but no biggie.

Budget Y + resonated B pipes + stock muffler = almost stock noise level

Budget Y + resonated B pipes + straight-through muffler = loud noise level. Your taste may differ.

Hhmm...that's the same number I called yesterday about 5-6 times. I could only get voice mail. I felt odd leaving a msg saying I wanted to buy a y-pipe. No call back as yet. Have anyone been able to get through lately...They are only open M-F. I'll try again next week. Stillen's y-pipe is a tad expensive. My Stillen y-pipe is finally cracking at the flex section after 8 years and now I need one fast

I had the same problem no one would answer I called about 3 times at all different times of the day but no answer. With the US exchange rate getting worse and worse and me not knowing how much I would get charged for shipping from Canada I bought a warpspeed even though i would have really liked to have a budget.

Fadrvr :
The bees in the can noise is there. Not very loud, just noticeable. The only time you really notice it, is if you are driving on the highway with the center divider to your left and your window is down. A very unique situation. After a while, you get accustomed to the noise and it goes away. I am married with two (2) kids and I hate loud (no hp gain) mufflers, my wife never asked once...what is that noise? I have had the Stillen y for 8 years now and it has finally seen its last days. If I cannot get a Budget (low cost) I will opt for a Stillen again. I never had a problem with it until now. It has cracked by the flex section. North East winters can be brutal.
