Y pipe question

Rhasenbank88 · 03-22-2019, 10:35 AM

Hey guys, I currently have the AAM non resonated short tails. Now I want something a little louder so I’m thinking of going with some test pipes. My question is should I get a Y pipe? I’ve seen many videos of test pipes and short tails and that’s about as loud as I want. Does adding a Y pipe increase the sound by a lot? Is it worth it performance wise? Or should I just stick to test pipes for now?

not that much difference if you stay with factory style Y pipe and mid pipe.
Try aam s-line instead, that H pipe design will make a huge difference.
Expecting to drone as hell once you got the straight pipe exhaust. Easy fix with Helmholtz resonator if you do some research and it's possible for a car without muffler and cat to be as quiet as stock exhaust while idling and cruising.
