jollyranchers Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 Just bought one to go with my K2 which i fitted last month I take it these also flow better than stock ? Quote
Zugara Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 Better flow than stock, why not fit a pop charger if you want it slightly louder as well, but you may loose a few horses with a pop. You may find the nuts on the cats have rusted on you will need a 14mm socket and some serious heat if they are rusted on. All said its an easy job with axle stands. good luck. Quote
jollyranchers Posted December 7, 2010 Author Posted December 7, 2010 yeah i had real joy doing the K2 so expecting a world of hurt again with the Y pipe Got my grinder now too will see how the sound is after the Y pipe , i already have the 06 airbox and drop in filter , may get a Typhoon kit just for the sound...must resist..

spursmaddave Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 Get some HFC's then you won't need a K&N or a Pop Charger Quote
Zugara Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 Get some HFC's then you won't need a K&N or a Pop Charger But you will need some ear defenders... Quote
Neilp Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 the y-pipe wont make a massive difference, at least mines never as it was the 300ps y-pipe which is supposed to be pretty good. I did notice however the car rev'd slighter easier when stationary. HFC's or decats make the biggest difference. My scorpion was tame until decats, now its a bit of a monster. Quote
Animal Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 Having a Japspeed Y-pipe fitted to my car next week (already has Berk HFCs and Blitz Nur-Spec T), will post if I can discern any difference! Quote
jollyranchers Posted December 9, 2010 Author Posted December 9, 2010 Top man , you will have to post some sound clips with that set up ! Quote
yokomo Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 Having a Japspeed Y-pipe fitted to my car next week (already has Berk HFCs and Blitz Nur-Spec T), will post if I can discern any difference! fujistubo exhaust aka nismo , japspeed Y pipe and berk hfc here. y pipe made a nice imprement to the sound, not hugley louder but did add a more tuned sound ot the engine and might be in my head but i think i pick s up a tad better. definatly worth the cash as im guessing most peeps Y will be about shot by now !

Dblock Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 I have a japspeed k2, japspeed y pipe, hfc and its only loud if you are over 3k or more than 4/10s on the throttle. I also just got some dc sports manifolds fitted so Im not sure how loud it will be when I get the car back. Quote

Will do but not cheap £420 plus about 10 hours fitting IMO better off with some dc copies like the db power. They are £250 ( I bought both) and they look decent enough quailty. Quote

OK, Y-pipe now fitted. It's pretty much as Yokomo said: only marginally louder, a little more aggressive and a tad raspier. Haven't really tried yet, but feels a little re urgent. Cheers, Alex Quote
