Default Just an x-pipe?

Does anyone know of any companies that do or will sell just an x-pipe? I have test pipes... and I did the muffler delete... and i love the sound of it but I still feel the stock y-pipe is restricting my exhaust a pretty good bit so I want to replace it w/ an x-pipe.

You would probably have to get it from a local muffler shop, and it won't look "pretty"

magnaflow borla and several other companies all sell them in different materials just google 304 stianless x pipe and you will find something. But if you are looking for a bolt in replacement for the y pipe u will need that made at a shop it should cost you less than 500 bucks. they will buy the x pipe from one of the above and weld 4 tubes and flanges to it and charge 100% markup

Hell if that's the case get in on the Berk catback (w/xpipe) group buy if still available, it's under $1000

Correct me if I am wrong, I have never pieced together an exhaust before always just bought a cbe and had it installed but basically the exhaust is Headers>Cats>Ypipe>center piping>muffler correct?

pretty much most aftermarket exhausts have the x or h pipe where the y is with some resonators throwin in after it sometimes if the mufflers are too loud. a resonator is basically just a straight through muffler so think of it as having 4 mufflers.

I did it on my G35, if you're still interested, I got a resonted X pipe, cut out the stock Y pipe and welded it in. Cost me 200 bucks. PICS!
