Hi everyone,
For the last few days I have been looking for performance high-flow catalytic converter for my 2010 Altima 3.5 V6 SR Sedan. No luck so far! I called Flowmaster (since I have 40 Series on the back), Magnaflow, Stillen... No luck. Can anyone recommend any quality solution?
Also, I want to replace the under drive pulley. I found Stillen has a good price for a lightweight pulley. Any comments?

Welcome to NICO!
Stillen makes some outstanding products. You'll never go wrong buying anything from them.
As for the high flow cats- you might be best suited to go to a muffler shop and have some universal cats installed. However, you could check our marketplace to see if any of the forum sponsors have a product.

Yeah, Stillen makes some good stuff, but they do not offer direct fit for my model. They have cats for 2.5L engine, but not for 3.5L... I was going to speak with my mechanic and see what he can suggest at far as universal unit.

I found a good muffler shop in my area. According to online reviews people there do know their business and are down to earth. Went there and had a nice talk with the owner of the place and his son. Their advice was not to replace the cats at this time. Since I am not putting a lot of engine work and my goal is not to build a track vehicle they suggested to keep the stock ones. I told them that down the road I would like to turbocharge the car. So they simply told me that when the time comes I will have to replace the cats and the entire exhaust system anyway. They tried to save me money and also educated me very well. Some people may have different opinion, but my experience with these guys was great. They did not try to sell me something that will not give me any desired results.
To answer the question, SR owners can use only universal cats unless they want to replace the manifold.
