I wish I would've got the resonated pipes now. Having to put the stock cats back on doesn't thrill me. The test pipes are easy to get on and off but the top bolts on the stock cats are tough. I had to go from the top side with a 3 foot extension to get to one of the bolts. Ya don't know till ya try though.

I bought this Y-pipe and will be installing it soon.............Heres my question coming from the turbocharged world the best exhaust is no exhaust, but because my 370z is n/a will this larger y-pipe cause me to loose low end performance ? I ask this because when I installed a larger exhaust on my last n/a car I lost low end performace while picking up some top end.

Check the cross member where the Y pipe connects to the rear section of the exhaust. After my top speed settled I was having a vibration from the exhaust laying on that cross member. I took it to exhaust shop and they bent it down a little bit, and I havn't had it since.

I had a bit of vibration from the TopSpeed midpipe....made my exhaust seem much louder in the car and was annoying. I just made a minor adjustment with the hangers and solved that issue. This happened right after I did the Y with the exhaust. I installed them at the same time so who knows what exactly did it. The one hanger on the midpipe is one thing I thought needed to be tightened up a bit to begin with. I wish winter would be over so I can drive it some more. It is a great sounding combo.

I offered to buy my friends JIC ypipe from him but he doesnt wanna sell it yet because he doesnt know if he needs it

my next question is since all y-pipes fit even the 350z ones does anyone have any comment on this 350z y-pipe from surewinproducts?
350Z Z33 02 03 04 05 07 G35 M2 Exhaust Y Pipe VQ35 - eBay (item 330535096006 end time Mar-26-11 19:07:07 PDT)

Will the design of this y-pipe fit? and will it change the tone at all because of the different design? Plus its only 60 bucks shipped
