I'm totally ignorant about ypipes - other than they ideally allow for straighter air flow (in addition to possibly wider pipe diameters). Were you running this with a stock exhaust system outside of the ypipe? Was there a noticable increase in power? What about noise?

I've been investigating exhaust systems - but am not looking to drop 1k on anything at the moment.

Thanks in advance,

I was using it with an aftermarket exhaust, Allon.

The stock y-pipe is not a great design. It's mor of a T shape and the bends are crimped (diameter of the pipe is compromised) and not mandrel bent. It also has a heavy heat shield on it. Try a search on here for pic of the JIC and the stock. You'll see a big difference. I don't know if I felt anything but it can't but help the exhaust.
