Ok just as the title says. I was wondering are both these y pipes exactly identical?? Because i really cant tell the difference between them. They look identical and the fujitsubo y pipe is 76 mm piping diameter while the Gruppe-s y pipe says its 76mm outlet. What does that mean? Just wondering if these y pipes are the same, if they are different , how are they different??

 

Bump*

 

Pretty much the same. I would go with Gruppe-s since it's cheaper.

 

the gruppe-s is a knock-off of the fujitsubo.

 

I have for about a year now. No problems here.

 

How was the performance?? Also how is the sound of your current setup now?

 

Performance was negligable at least to me. The car did feel a little more responsive, free reving. The sound is great. A deeper rumble but not loud or intrusive during idle and steady cruising. The helix cats have introduced rasp though.

 

actually everyone and their mother is making this same y pipe.. its sourced from the same supplier i guess in japan (probably built in china) I had one in my possession. With RESONATED test pipes and stock exhaust it was very raspy. Took ypipe out and rasp gone.

 

rasp is gooood

 

u could concider tanabe. it looks better flowing

 

Ok i finally figured out the difference between the gruppe s Y pipe and the Fuji Y Pipe. Take a look at the pic below of the FUJI y pipe. Apparently the fuji Y pipe has that thing in the middle that allows both pipes to exchange air before it reaches the outlet, whereas the gruppes y pipe is just 2 separate pipes before going into the outlet. Does anybody have any idea which design looks like it'll sound better and perform better??

- Fujitsubo Exhaust

- Gruppe-S


Any idea which one looks more performance oriented?? THe Fuji Exhaust or Gruppe S?? I need to buy one soon, like today or tomorrow. Just need some ideas. The Gruppe S doesn't have that weld in the middle that connects both pipes. Its just 2 straight pipes going to the outlet. Otherwise, they are practically identical.

 

if all the same... then meh... go with the cheaper one
