Default Videos,RSR, Kinetix, M2 Perf. ypipe installed

I saw a fellow member buy a M2 Performance exhaust so I thought I would try out their Y-Pipe. I needed it to match up with my Kinetix resonated test pipes and the RSR. The piping matches up perfect at 2.25 with the Kinetix and near perfect with the outlet being 3" and my RSR being 2.75". I called RSR and they said it shouldn't effect anything and should help. They said the stock ypipe is one of the most restrictive peices of the exhaust.

My introduction with M2 Performance started out a little rough with getting a defective Y-Pipe. They have excellent customer service which made up for it. They sent a new pipe out and did not request the old one back.

The pipe made my RSR deeper and helped free up some revs. The first thing my wife said was that it was deeper. That really means something because she never really notices lol. I like it a lot better with my Kinetix than when I had on the berk non resonated. You can view my older vids on streetfire too.

The best thing is that the pipe was only 52.00 shipped!! I have seen them go for even cheaper. I figured it was worth a try and I can always upgrade later, but for this price you can't beat it.

Next up is a good tune! Thanks to my Dad for helping to film.

A little to raspy for me.

Might want to work on your shifting to, sounded like you were either burning your clutch into 2nd a lot, or just bogging.

Yeah I didn't have great shifts I def need to work on that. I am surprised about the rasp I didn't think it had too much. The only time you hear it popping is when i rev'd into the redline.

A better camera would have really helped out too. Thanks for the comments!

The piping matches up perfect at 2.25" with my Kinetix and near perfect with the outlet being 3" as my RSR is 2.75". RSR said that would be fine.

So not a full 3" from beginning to end but I wanted to find the best flowing pipe for my set up.
