If I change the 3" y pipe to 2.5" will this change the sound of my exhaust? I love the way it sounds and would hate to change anything about the sound. Also, will this get some of my low end torque back?

I have recently put an AEM bruteforce CAI on and it feels much better but still feels like it is almost dragging. Hard to explain. I know my tires don't help. Just wondering if this would make a noticable difference? Without affecting the sound.

like warp said. you'll get better low end. the sound MIGHT be slighty different. possibly not quite as deep.

I had a banks muffler swapped onto my jba catback and it wasn't near as loud as any of the other banks I have heard, even after removing my secondary cats. That being said I have a strong feeling the majority of the banks sound comes from the 3" y pipe.

the bigger the pipes, the deeper the tone. i think the jba y-pipe is 2 1/4. i've got a custom y-pipe assembly using a flowmaster y-collector. 2 1/2 pipe then 3" pipe to a dynmax bullet muffler and my system is deeper and louder than some banks i've heard.

IMO, the Flowmaster y-collector is the best flowing y-pipe you can use/install on a single exhaust. You will not loose any hp, but will gain low to mid torque.

keep your banks tip, run a custom Y and dump it.
