Exhaust and Y-pipe upgrades

Postby all_red » Wed Oct 13, 2004 5:34 pm

I'm planning on upgrading my exhaust. I want to put a cut out right after the O2 sensor. I'm also thinking about customizing a Y-pipe.

What do you guys think about that? any thoughts are welcome!
Also, what is the stock exhaust size?

Thanx

I wouldn't even mess with the Y-pipe. Just buy the JP Performance Ypipe and headers. They've done the testing and research on it.

If I had the money, I would have gone with the JPP setup.

how much did the custom Ypipe cost you, Mike?
