Stone Mountain Racing Y pipe?

Anyone ever heard of this or used it? I found a local selling this y pipe for a good price, but I never heard of it. How does it fit/perform?

Haven't really heard too much about them which is usually not good. Here are a couple links found with the search regarding Stone Mountain products. Link 1 Link 2 There are other threads that talk about them as well. Most complain about fitment issues.

My gf had it on her vq35 swapped 4th gen all last year and it worked fine. She trapped 103 and ran 13.5 with it so it works.

Jack Donaghy: I can't have bedbugs. I went to Princeton.
Kenneth Parcell: Sir, everyone can get them. Back in Stone Mountain, even the mayor had them, and she was a horse.

Just get the new pipe then. The cheapest ones used to run for about $140, anything cheaper than that is made in China.

Frankly, any y-pipe that gets rid of the pre cats will give you gains. The biggest issue with some brands was fitment...anything can be made to fit at the shop. I don't remember the issue with Stone Racing if any other than it was the most similar to the stock y-pipe diameter.

If you're seeing them for $250 then why is $100 too complicated of a decision?

Stainless are $250, aluminum used to go for $140+ depends who was selling. Warspeed used to the cheapest besides Stone Mountain, or any other JDM ebay brand
