opinions are fine... but comments about one being better than another without viable reasoning would be stupid for the OP to consider...

And since you made s statement that had no just cause, he should dismiss your post as being anything relevant to his decision making.

Ah Mike. My statement was an opinion backed up by reasons stated in blue. He's free to take or dimiss the information at will. I don't think he needs YOU to be telling him what he should/shouldn't consider.

Since your posts have really no opinion either way, he could just ignore all your posts and not be any worse off for it.

You crack me up Mike!

he may not realize your "opinion" was merit-less...

he might have been mislead to believe you knew wtf you are talking about - so I felt compelled to make sure it was clear that you don't.

The Ichiba y-pipe looks like a replica of the G37/370Z HR y-pipe, while the Megan y-pipe looks like the DE y-pipe. Both are 2.5" inlet and 3" outlet in this case. The Ichiba should offer better performance judging by the design of it. If it's worth 3 times the Megan, that's up to you...I can tell you though that the Megan would be totally useless over the stock y-pipe unless you planned on getting an aftermarket exhaust after it.

Glad you found the Y that we talked about. Should be what you are looking for in a Y. Especially the collector design.

Not sure why an essentially non productive post like that would be funny to you Was there something specific regarding whatever he's talking about that you necessarily agreed to?

Not really. Some have dyno'd the HR unit and of course the Motordyne XYZ Y has been dyno'd extensively.

From what I remember, all the other Ys prior to the HR/XYZ have resulted in poor dyno results. Hence my recommendation
