I'd very disapointed in my AAM y-pipe. The flow is good.. but there is a design flaw.. It angles down slightly... just enough that I have developed a small hole on the flex pipe portion because my car is lowered

I'd look for a y-pipe that is flat like the stock piece.

$500 bucks for a Y pipe is go with Stillen at $255 believe. I got lucky and found a local dude selling a new Megan Y pipe that was not used. I havent had any issues with it thus far and yeah I know its "Megan" but hey no issues here and its holding up fine! I will look into something else when I get my headers and cats done if ever.

+1 on the Megan Racing Y pipe (and some other stuff they make) When I have a need for a Y pipe aplication, I use the Megan Racing ones. Most of their newer stuff is pretty good.

yup, people dog Megan as they haven't had a great track record. But i got my Megan off ebay for $140 shipped, other vendor/sponsor sell the same one or rebadged for $199+. At that price you can always buy a replacement if something goes wrong and still save money. Mine didn't have any issue and is current on another another NGC member's G w/o any issue.
