Default slp ypipe

does anyone know if the slp ypipe is worth the money on an 01 z28 with just an airlid?

I'm getting one for my 2002 Camaro SS. If you have a cat-back exhaust system you can expect about 5-10 RWHP. That's not too bad for around $200. I've heard of people spending a lot more for mods that don't net as much HP.

thanks, what if you don't have a catback? I guess it is useless?

If you look at the stock y-pipe I think you'll understand there will be some gain in H.P, you may not feel much of a gain but every bit helps.

P.S. If you plan on doing headers in the future I would pass on the y-pipe, most headers use there own y-pipe.

Thanks for the input guys. I think that I will just wait until I get headers.

You'll pickup throttle response with the Y-pipe even if you don't have a catback exhaust system. I agree with Dark Age if you plan on adding headers later then you don't need to get the y pipe now. I don't plan on putting headers on my SS for a long while so I'm going with the Y-pipe for now.
