Last time custom made mine about rm260.00.

- Better throttle response.

- More prominent VQ V6 sound.

- Slightly higher fuel consumption.

sb3, where did u do u y-pipe?
There is one shop @ Puchong called Wai Heng Exhaust . I am sure alot of you guys have seen different outlets around klang valley. But to customise our VQ "Y-pipe" , it can only be done at their puchong 'HQ'. Its just located nearby Tesco , puchong.:biggrin:

any side effect? :P

u ah.. not good la..

make me gatal again....
Yes , there are some side effects listed below:-

-For those grown up men who have peter-pan syndrome, since it will give a better throttle response, you would tend to WOT more frequently just to hear the V6 growl !! This would make your V6 more thirsty for fuel , hence higher fuel consumption.

- As this habit is hard to kick-off, you would tend to change the whole exhaust systems after frequent 'advice ' given by the exhaust technician. They will say that you would need to free up some horses by changing the piping, resonator and a s or straight flow muffler. This will incur higher cost $$$!

- ah yes, last but not least , to keep your ori y-pipe . If you are bored with the 'sound' you can always put back the ori y-pipe.

WARNING : This installation is habit forming ! Therefore is advisable to install with caution, hahaha!!

rgds,

SB3.

Dear all,

I bought over my elder brother's Honda accord and wanted to remove the body kits, do you know any shops in Klang, Shah Alam or Subang area where I could safely remove the body kits without damaging the paint job?

I'm not planning to DIY the removal as I wouldn't want to ruin the original paint.
Estimated price to remove?
Can I trade in the body kit as we'll?

Thank you for your recommendations in advance.
Regards,
