Yes, it will fit the sedan, all the y-pipes, cats and headers are the same for the GS, GC, and Z.

Its a nice quality piece.... Perfect fit and good quality stainless pipes.
I am not cheap*** I just think Y-pipes are WAY over priced.....

not a bad deal lorinserbenz....i also think most y pipes are overpriced...i mean honestly its nothing people really are gonna see...and between none of them theres not gonna be a huge difference in hp...i think this piece that we are getting with the group buy looks like a excellent y pipe....and its right in my price range....this y pipe with a y pipe back exhaust would be a great combo...theres been research done that actually this setup is more beneficial to our z's than the true dual setup...maybe some vendors can post prices on some y pipe back setups...

Only thing I see with this y-pipe is the fact that it goes into a single pipe really fast. Is not like the others that are actually 2 pipes until the end. Torque will probably be different. Kind of like the difference between long and short tube headers.

Just got mine today. The quality is not bad. I did notice there's leak between where the 2 pipes meet in the collector area. I'm going to find a shop and have it weld. I really don't want the hassel of returning it.

Come on.. do you really think there is going to be ANY difference in these pipes? I bet if you dynoed EVERY Y-PIPE made the difference would be 1 or 2 hp IF that.
The stock Y pipe is restrictive, so any of these Ypipes from the $100 one to the $400 one is going to be an improvement.
Y-pipes are the one thing that I feel is a total rip off . There is probably $40 in pipe and labor. I ll bet the Y-pipe I have performs just as good as a $400 one. One of the important things is the quality of the welds, which on the one I bought look great.
