So $540 for the TS mid+muffler. How much for the y-pipe? Total?

Not a TP Y, its identical to the Y in my 'cheap Y thread' I paid 80 shipped for my Y and 460 Shipped for my mid and muffler, 60 for my drop ins, now thats bargain motoring right there.

Hey brotha I have this exhaust only with the Top Speed Y pipe, but I also have stillen headers, and will soon have berk HFCs (just been to lazy to install them) but I was reading your thread and you said this has silencers. I didn't know that is what those are SO I tried to remove mine, but mine seem to be wedged in there, what tools did you use to get yours out? Thanks

Kastley85891 · 02-17-2011, 07:43 PM

PDave - thx man, I like it and it fits with my project mentality ;-)

Yeah man, get some PB blaster and spray the lining of the inserts, leave for 5-10 mins, get a 6mm allen Key, stick 90 end in pipe and pull it back so it catches the insert, get some vice grips clamped on the other end of the key, short sharp pulls, work it at 12,3,6,9 O'clock, little bit at a time, they will come.
Take a look in my pic the tools are still there on the ground lol.

Ahhhh man I just got them off but I used some WD40...and all I can say is OOMMGG!!! this is ssiicckk!!! haha I read a lot about this exhaust before I bought it and it always sounded so good, I was happy with the sound at first...but now this is how I wanted it to sound!!! I cant wait to put my HFC's on...I'm going to do it this weekend, now I have motivation!!

tonybui · 02-16-2011, 10:56 PM

Sounds good without silencers !!

What are drop-ins ?? lolz

Kastley85891 · 02-16-2011, 11:13 PM

Thanks, drop in panel filters, I run K&N

christian370z · 02-16-2011, 11:39 PM

That sounds and looks so much better without the silencers. Sounds great!

younter · 02-16-2011, 11:41 PM

Yea..I guess just take it off..sounds way better.

Jordo! · 02-16-2011, 11:53 PM

Sounds bad ***. Wonder if the silencers kill some of the power too...

Kastley85891 · 02-17-2011, 07:01 AM

Yeah - I am sold, but wanted to trial both, driving with silencers in it still sounds good, may be an option if TP's make it too loud, could always spray silencers black.

JORDO - not driven enough to tell if any power diff but will see.

xgrudgex · 02-17-2011, 09:06 AM

Sounds deep! very nice without the silencers. I will start considering a single cbe if the numbers look as good as it sounds
