I added the y-pipe to mine tonight and it made a noticeable difference in low-end power. The sound though……..it’s horrendous! Mine was that funky W style from the factory and I deleted my cat. There was a Flowmaster 3” in and 2 x 3” out when I bought it. Now it sounds like the tallest Honda in the neighborhood. I dunno whether to get an unnecessarily tall gawdy wing or find a muffler to tame this hideous sound.
I used the biggest cheapest 3" in, single 3" out muffler I could get at the local auto parts store. Turned it out in front of the back wheel, It sounds like a wana be Lamborghini....that you get at Walmart. Duals on your rig probably not helping the sound either.
@@KaputyINC It’s to tame air pulses that hit each other due to the V10 firing order causing what has been called in the V10 world “flutter” . I learned everything about it after my cat was stolen and the aftermarket one I replaced it with exacerbated the flutter horrendously when cold. Sounds like I have a rod about to go when cold or like a 6.0 diesel.
Those stock y pipes are what give the v10 it's nasty raspy sound, straight piped. I've always wanted a v10 for for that sound and now i have one and its has a aftermarket y pipe. Sounds like a v6 😑
I did that y pipe then got rid of the cat(off road use only of course) and a cheep part's store muffler, turned out in front of the tire, and it has that distinct v10 sound. Everything 3"
The Y pipe on my 99 F250 5.4 in blocking me from removing my oil pan. You have any ideas or aftermarket suggestions? The engine is already lifted, so I doubt I'd be able to unbolt it from the headers, especially the passenger side, but if push comes to shove, I suppose I could partially bolt the pan back on and lower everything just to remove the Y pipe. I show it at the end of this video about my timing cover. th-cam.com/video/8II0uJdjedo/w-d-xo.html
Have any videos of this y-pipe and cat delete? Also, if the manifolds ever leak, I think Banks makes a header kit for these, which probably really makes it sound like a Viper.
I wouldn't do this again, the y pipe already rusted through, I have 4 v10 super dutys, in the future I'll just do headers. It sounds like a Walmart supercar
Small improvement in fuel economy and performance. Pipe itself already has a hole big enough rusted in it to throw a cat through. So I wouldn't buy it again. In retrospect I would have bit the bullet went with headers and a new Y pipe.
Bought their kit for the '99-'00 5.4 to delete the six flags waterslide, do the pipes fit tight enough to use exhaust clamps? Saw your comments about it rusting through and figured i'd want to remove it later for some off the shelf stainless
The gaps are tight enough that you could weld them, Part of the issue is you're on a curve, and you have to cut enough pipe out of the way to get the new pipe on, I don't know if there's enough left to clamp to.
Now that's what I call a real shop video!
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, hopefully you found it useful
That’s my mission tomorrow 🤘
Love this guy😂!!

Thanks

That neck down was actually to get rid of what sounds like piston slap at certain rpm’s.
That's interesting. So they were trying to increase cylinder back pressure to keep the piston under control or something like that?

@@TheChrisgralnic that's good to know, thanks for the knowledge.
I live in California I call this place comifornia now it sucks here
So I've heard, but look at the bright side, you might see a famous actor.

I'm guessing you have to unbolt it from the manifolds to make room, good luck.

Hey any update on it would u recommend it or maybe leave it stock?
Small improvement in fuel economy and performance. Pipe itself already has a hole big enough rusted in it to throw a cat through. So I wouldn't buy it again. In retrospect I would have bit the bullet went with headers and a new Y pipe.
@@KaputyINC man thank you for your opinion so we’re can u get new y pipe?
@@soldierscraft9213 I'm not entirely sure, I happen to have a spare one I'm going to put on. Truck is currently loud as hell.
Hey I have a question hows the truck doing now do u have any notes of how its been?
The pipe itself is holding up quite well I have noticed a slight increase in power and mileage. It also changed the note of the exhaust a little bit
haha i had a good time watching ur video bud. git er donne
Thanks, We're tryin over here
WHAT ARE THE RESULTS? COULD YOU FEEL A DIFFERENCE IN ACCELERATION? MPG INCREASE?
2 MPG, and a little gain in power when towing. It's rarely not hooked to a gooseneck trailer. The exhaust note got slightly deeper as well.
Kaputy INC cool thanks
Thanks for the vid, but you keep saying “SLP” when you are narrating but I think the part is made by SPD.
You are correct, I have it right in the description but I kept saying SLP while I was filming.
