So its pretty agreed upon that Stillen has the quietest catback?

None of the exhausts come with a y-pipe. Racingline's y-pipe connects the mid-pipe of all the cat-back exhaust systems to the headers.

how can the racingline y pipe claim 10hp, while the whole cat back nismo claims like 7?

what is stillen claiming?

Any dyno's ran?
Because the Y pipe is replacing the stock piping right behind the two exhaust manifolds/pre-cats where they meet. The stock piping around there is crimped as well, while the Y-pipe is proper round and designed for smoother flow, as well as getting rid of the 3rd un-metered cat that the stock setup there has. SO yes, it provides the best bang for the buck so to speak.

If you want more sound to go with v8's around you, go with Borla. It has a very nice deep & powerful tone. Not to mention if you do get the racingline y-pipe, it makes it sound even better.

please do. I really like hearing what the ypipe does to the tone of each of the exhausts.

I have the Nismo and Y-pipe, it doesn't really have an import sound, more of a muscle sound.

It does sound close to the Z and G though.
