Performance muffler for 02 maxima?

[johnnyd6404]

I want to put a performance muffler on my maxima but cant seem to find any info on what type to use. I dont want one that hangs down low and looks cheesy I want to keep the factory look but want a better sound and performance. If anyone has any thougts i would appreciate it.

I know cattman is good stuff but those tips look cheesy any other sugestions. Do I need that pipe attached or can I get just the muffler?

[lightsout]

the tips don't look too bad at all(my opinion tho)...they look very close to the stock exhaust tips ...so you are most likely not to be bothered by the poooolice

muffler: $350Mid-pipe: $275Y-pipe: $350

Thanks probably will go with that but what about that pipe will I need a muffler with one or will the garage have to fab one up.

Either way works. If it comes with it, you're set. If it doesn't, the shop can fab up the necessary piping. Just depends on the muffler you go with.

Thanks for the input but I think I changed my mind I'm going with the catback exhaust, but not sure which one. Greedy or Catman I definatly dont want it to sound like a rice burner I want that american muscle sound but not too loud. Which one is best? Got any sound clips. Much appreciated

[johnnyd6404]

Oh I forgot how much should it cost to install?

Not to offend anyone, but you can't get there without 8 cylinders, but that's my opinion...

The Cattman systems look nice and the tips are dead on for a nice looking car. If I was going to do one on mine, it would be the one to go with. If you bring a system into a shop, they will pretty much charge as they go to make it work, becasue it's not theirs to begin with, unless of course you know someone.....

If you are buying a catback system, why would you not install it yourself. A package deals come pretty much ready to go. Run the car up on a set of ramps and jack up the rear for clearance. I have done a couple on DSMs that the kids bought, just so happens that I am the dad with the greasy hands.--Mike
