If I add a Y pipe (open to brands too if I decide to go that route) what would I expect to happen to my car? I am teetering the idea of doing it to open some more volume, but when I look up y pipes on ecoboost, I hear nothing but tons of crackles and popping which is something I dont really want.

Think i would get much droning at highway speed? Is there a y pipe that wont crackle/pop like somethings going to explode via all the youtube videos ive found.

Also, would I need a tune with y pipe + my awe touring axle back? Hoping not.

You won't require a tune. Aftermarket exhaust systems just add noise, no power.
Removing the resonator will definitely make it louder, I've never heard a y pipe that didn't snap crackle and pop., but drone might be an issue.
Only one way to find out.........

Post your results!

I happen to run across this, would this be ideal for me? Is it supposed to look crooked like that? I figured it would be straight pipe until the Y section. Could be wrong though.

Description.

120 bucks.

(Flowmaster y pipe with vibrant bottle resonator 10”. Good way to get more sound out of the exhaust without the drone)

The offset is correct. The EB enters the resonator on the right and the wiggle lines it up with the properly centered rear sections.

Think that would be louder than stock resonator and sound reasonably ok? idk much if flow master y pipe is quality or not.

The vibrant resonator will definitely cut down on the drone and crackles and also makes the exhaust tone a bit deeper. I say jump on it. If you find that it is still too raspy or has too much drone, you can always swap out the small bottle resonator for a larger vibrant ultra quiet resonator. That is what I added to mine and it made a ton of difference.

I have a borla s-type axel back exhaust with Y-pipe. So much better. No drone what so ever and makes the note louder.

he is trying for local pick up only, I offered shipping so we will see if he lets me have it. I guess the flow masters aren't too bad, mandrel bent and such.

Ordered a Roush Y pipe, the seller doesn't want to sell it via ship. $230 for Roush but got two t shirts tossed in.

Roush Y + AWE touring axle = hope sounds good, doesn't drone too bad without ton crackle pops.

any guesses on how itl change its sound from current? how much louder would you guess a resonator delete does by itself? I am not sure how much the resonator deadens the exhaust
