Budget Y - Pipe
Budget Y - Pipe Instead of belting out $350 + for an ORP and simulators not including labor. I opted to have a local (naughty) muffler shop gut my cats and replace the 2 flattened pipes after the cats with 2.5in mandrel bent pipe into a 2.5in Y joint then to my existing 3in Hooker Cat-back. I paid $200 labor included. Sure the car smokes a little, its expected with any ORP. But the reward for this budget exhaust modification is substantial. I can’t be exact on the HP gained, but I can definitely feel a SOTP power difference. I would recommend it to anyone strapped for cash that would like to get a little more power from the stock exhaust manifolds. Bottom line I’m Happy .

Re: Budget Y - Pipe You are still gonna need the O2 simms, so you basically just did the same thing I did, Gutted cats and bought SLP Y pipe (200 bucks) You can find used simms cheap just be careful, a few people have bought used simms and they didn't work. I however got lucky paid 40 bucks for a pair and they work perfect <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
