Budget Y Pipe

Anyone have any info on this?
I'm tempted to buy one but how is it 1/2 the price of a Warpspeed Pipe, which is $100 less that Stillen and Cattman?
How does it sound?

The Budget pipe is just as good as all the others. The funny thing is, its still $250, except its $250 Canadian, which comes out to about $160 USD. The biggest discount is the exchange rate. If you were living in Canada, you'd think $250 CAD is a lot, except a WS or Cattman pipe would be cost prohibitive.

Mrmaxima97 has budget y-pipe installed on his 97 max. I rode in his car and it really improves the hp gain and it sounds really nice also. Really nice mod for only 160 bucks.

P.S. BRO!!! this is important. When you will go to install the y-pipe make sure you will get new bolts instead of using old ones (which might be rusted and all) This is really important. Budget y-pipe will NOT come with new bolts. You have to get them separately. You can ask Mrmaxima97 where he got his bolts (because Im not sure hehe)

I have a Budget y-pipe, but I can't remember the bolt specs. Damn. I got them at Pep Boys.

Is T-304 Stainless Steel a good material in terms of rust and durability? Would the y-pipe last me a long time?

It is a very good y-pipe. In my opinion, the best one out there.

When I was putting on my ypipe the only bolts I needed to get replaced were the ones at the end of the ypipe and the cat. I went to a local muffler shop and they torched them off and put new ones on for like 5 bucks.

Just a little bit louder than stock. Only noticeable when you go WOT(on the throttle).
