As of right now, noone produces a full cat-back. That will change sometime around May.

Axle-backs are for nothing but show, they give you absolutely nothing other than something shiny to look at and a new sound to your exhaust.

You can still go and have a custom cat-back made, like blind_snyper. It's really not all that expensive.

Nothing aginst Blind Snyper but if you want a Catback wait for a company to make one for the Versa. This will insure that you are getting the maximum amount of preformance and also a great sound out of it.

Getting a custom Catback is risky because it might sound like a lawn mower.

yes a agree that it was risky because i didnt knoew what it would sound like, but for less than half the price for anything hat will be available later i am very happy with it besides really how much difference in hp will there be between a custom one and one produced later?

...anyways here is the link if you were still interested zerothread?id=306175

There are other members of the board (like Fastlyfe) who love their exhausts.

Not sure if one really need a shiny can on the back. You could go to some good muffler shop & have then bend up a 2.5" cat-back piping with a good Flow-Pro muffler or similar (if it fits in the tiny cavity).

Really, most of those cans those guys (& gals) put on their Too Fast & Furious Hondas & Acuras are more show & noise than go. Why does one need a 5" vacuum cleaner nozzle so the police can hear coming a mile away? Lesson for the day: Flow without the Noise!

Well i went to a local shop and got my custom 2.25" cat back with a 4" magnaflow muffler and it drives and sounds great... and it was $370 which isn't even bad for something you'd find on the internet

I just installed the stillen axle back last night. I think it sounds great. Its quiet when your cruising and then when you get on the gas, it gets throaty. We'll see what it sounds like after its broken in.
