so i'm finally beginning to collect all the parts i need for a header / y pipe swap. i was fortunate to get a really nice set of used american racing headers off these forums.

next is a y-pipe. I'd like to get a catted y to cut down on rasp and keep it somewhat emissions friendly. i've been shopping around. i would have liked to stick with american racing headers but the cost is astronomical compared to competitors. i understand it's one of the top brands in the industry but is shelling out that much for a y-pipe really worth it?

texas speed has one at almost half the cost and the reviews aren't bad at all. could someone justify to me spending almost $300 more for a better name brand on any pipe?

Thanks in advance
