I just got my y-pipe welded in, haven't really noticed any performance changes. It did change the exhaust tone, it's a little more mild now than it was before, and maybe a tad quieter inside the cab.

Looks much better than stock. The Y-pipe is the type of mod that you know is helping because it is removing that restriction in the factory piping, but its not the type of mod that is going to throw you in the back of the seat. Looks like they did a nice job on the install.

That's a great mod. The stock y-pipe is pinched pretty good.

Someone over at another forum did a before and after magnaflow y-pipe dyno. They saw a gain of 8 RWHP.

Did you check out your stock Y?

I know on my 2008 it's pinched real bad. Maybe I can dig up a pic.

Oh yeah, I saw it alright. The pass side pipe coming down was damn near pinched in half where it met the other pipe at the collection point.

120, but I'm sure it varies by shop, and how much new pipe they install with it

Wish I could find a place around me that would install for $120. Haven't gotten a single quote under $200, which I refuse to pay.

I got it done here in GA for $80. I've seen posts on other forums where folks have gotten it done for even less.

How did you decide which size to go with?

Stock Y both pipes pinch into one. Good idea to get rid of this right away and install the MAG Y. :)
