$3! Go to a vdub shop next time, those are 99cents all day long at the counter.
Vatozone is a mile from my house. VDub is 10. @ $2.40/gal it's cheaper to pay more for the filter than to drive to Vdub.

Oh we know...just don't turn around though and we can stay friends
I suppose I shouldn't respond because someone will get all huffy about this being Tech and not Chit-Chat...

Went to west coast and took my little ladies to Disney Land in my buddy's 80.

Agreed. If it were me, as soon as I hit that little island I would have gotten out, removed my underwear, threw up, drank a beer and hooked up a hammock because I wouldn't be going anywhere for a bit while I let my heart rate come south of 250bpm

One of the local CSC members showed me his old Y-Pipe off his 80 and how very restrictive the 2 tubes leading into the single pipe transition become. The 2 pipes are squeezed down to 50% of thier diameter and are seperated until they meet with the single tube. We chop-sawed the old pipe to show this feature.
Following the old adage of "the more air in and the more air out" leads to better performance and gas mileage, I took his advise and looked into the Magnaflow 23120 pipe. This is 404 Stainless that also incorporates the first catalytic converter. As you can see the new pipe is full diameter throughout the Y for much better flow.
A few years ago I replaced the pinched down section of the exhaust pipe over the 3rd rear crossmember to help my supercharger breathe well but I didnt realize that the big restriction up front at the Ypipe. I dont expect huge differences, but will monitor my Ultraguage for mpgs and see how it performs with some driving.
The install was more time consuming than thought due to the old studs, nuts, and O2 sensor that didnt like being disturbed after so many years. The fitment is a direct bolt up as advertised and fit well. The kit comes with all the gaskets that are needed too.
The old pipe was not in the best of shape and the first cat spit out a fair amount of cat sand when removed due to age. I like that the new first cat is shaped to not hang down to catch any rocks.
