Does anyone have any info on aftermarket exhaust system? I am looking for HP gains and prices. I have been looking at warpspeed systems anyone have one??

Thanks

yes i know greddy has a ssytem but what is the HP to $ ration? I kinda like the wark speed exhause because the mufflep looks close to stock...any other companies make stock looking mufflers???

if not go for a Dynomax muffler its a little more louder than stock but it LOOKS very close to OEM style--> if thats what you're looking for. also check out <a href="http://www.brullenexhaust.com/">Brullen Exhaust</a> they've got a catback kit for the Max too, about $600+/-.

GReddy claims 7hp gain with their exhaust system. I had a custom 2.5" cat-back exhaust system made for my max using a Tsudo dual DTM SS muffler. It was loud as hell.. even mustang owners would ask me what kind of exhaust I had. I'm kind of glad I don't have an exhaust on my Pearl max cuz the noise on the SkyBlue was too loud. I think I gained like 1-2hp with the exhaust system. The power wasn't really noticeable. But one I got my CAI, it was a different story!! The CAI and the exhaust was a great combo! Great all around power increase. I highly recommend it. Then I got a Y-pipe... well, maybe I shouldn't get into that.. hehe

Im interested in the Dynomax Exhaust. Will the exhaust come with hanging brakets for the max or is it universal. also what is the cost. my muffler now has some rot starting on it and i like to replace things before they go. Also when you say its loud is it like a ricy honda loud or like a stang loud?

thanks

[Also when you say its loud is it like a ricy honda loud or like a stang loud?

Probably V6 loud(you know what i mean?).
I have a MagnaFlow DTM, it's loud but i don't think it's too loud, makes it sound real throaty,it doesn't sound like no Honda but it's not quite as low as a V8

91MaximaGxR

Does the Magnaflow DTM come with the mounting brackets for the max so all i have to do is hang it? Also does it look close to stock?

Thanks

"V6 sound" maybe low toned V8(I'd dare to say) like you said..far from the weak "BUZZ" heard on most 4cyl. it sounds great to me and it is very affordable too. I got mine for about $70 from Jegs.com, but I'll be going with two 6" round Magnaflows when the time comes for my dual exhaust project!!! MUHAHAHAHA....... And BTW universal mufflers DON'T COME WITH MOUNTING BRACKETS(thus any muffler system for 3rd Gens OTHER than Greddy, Brullen and WSP) so just get a shop to custom weld the hangers to stock positions and have them install it, unless you can weld for yourself........

Does anyone have a greddy? When you buy a greddy exhaust what comes with it?

DA-MAX

The ("overpriced" and "over-rated" )Greddy system comes with the catback pipe and a muffler with the hangers pre-welded on so you can probably do it yourself on the install! IMO the $500 Greddy system is too much for a catback and muffler when for $525 you can replace your <b>ENTIRE</b> exhaust setup(2.5" catback, hi-flow cat, hi-flow Y-pipe) for $500-550+/- from Warpspeed Performance. Don't get me wrong, I'm not downing Greddy, but remember with them you're paying for the NAME, not the actual product!!!!!

I'm going to do a whole custom dual exhaust on my '91 SE. I've come up with an idea of running two pipes all the way from where the y-pipe connects to the engine and just totally bypassing the y-pipe. Is this possible and if anyone has any more ideas let me know.

92ZexMaximaSE

I agree with overpriced and over rated thing about Greddy. Everyone I have talked to who owned a greddy (mostly Honday owners) have said they were unimpressed by the HP gains. I asked them why did they spend $500+ on this exhaust system and they said their friends all had it. I was like WTF?!! I've had my Dynomax muffler for quite some time and am pleased with it. It is louder than a stock exhaust but not that annoying sound you hear from those pesky civics/integras.

i thought about runnin dual exhaust. there's a place that'll do it for me for like 200 bucks, plus mufflers and cats. i was thinking the same thing you were. forget the y pipe and run the duals like it's got headers. i was thinking about an H pipe too, to equalize pressure out the exhaust. only thing i was worried about it 1. backpressure, and 2. noise. i don't think with 2 mufflers and cats it'll be too loud, but i'm worried i'll lose all my back pressure and lose hp and torque. there IS such a thing as too much of a good thing. the other thing i wasn't thrilled with, is i hear you have to remove your spare tire holder to do this mod. anyone have any pics of a max with dual exhaust? if i do it, i'll prolly get a body kit. any ideas anyone?

how about using a dual out Cat converter and running two pipes back. thus you can keep the Y-pipe and gain some extra HP. I think if you take out the Y-pipe setup and run a split pipe back form the manifold you'll lose A LOT of POWER a lot more than you'll lose from the putting on a dual exhaust in the first place!!! anyways there are no power gains with dual exhaust on our cars anyways since the manifold isn't configured that way. Personally I'd stay with a Y-pipe and split back from there, I'm just gonna use the single in/dual out cat. conv. after the Y, as an outlet for the two pipes to run back and also allowing me to possibly avoid having to use a X or H pipe, I call it the "Flowmaster" method since thats how Flowmaster designs one of their dual exhaust versions--> .......as for power loss, I doubt it will be undriveable, but I'll have the single pipe configuration(single in/out cat, 2.5" catback and muffler) to switch back on when I go to the track!

HotMax28

wait, are u guys saying that by having a dual exhaust you will lose power? and who sells those dual out cats? anybody have any pictures of a dual exhaust?

wow this dual exhaust is getting interesting. I am starting to think about doing it myself. Im just scared of lossing HP though when playing withthe back pressure. Well if anyone does do the mod let me know how it goes!

Brandon90gxe

i love the dual exaust!! my friend has an infinity qx4 and he just put quad exaust on it, direct from the headers so i think its that H pipe config. (basically 2 seperate pipes all the way down one flowmaster muffler joining the two and then they split 2 on each side) sounds soo tite!! like an american v8 and it looks sweeet. when he gets pics ill post em, and since i saw his i want dual for my car grrrrr he paid i think $470 complete.

JDwyer2821

Nissan should try dual exaust for the maxima!!

HotMax28

i'm definitely goin to try the dual exhaust with the split cat, i'll get some pictures up as soon as i find some money to do the mod

91MaximaGxR

Let me know after you do the mod HOTMAX and let me know the amount of power you have before and after to see if you loss or gain HP

crsmax

Didn't you say a while back that you had some work done in Silver Spring, MD.? There was a muffler shop that you recommended right? Let me know the name of the people you talked to, I'm interested in a setup like you have now. Maybe we can meet up and discuss.

where are you at?? are you in DC Maxclub? I got my initail setup done at Rayco, and I'm planning to go back to them with this project, but I haven't done it yet(no LOOT!!!). At the most I'm shooting for $300-400, labor/install/fab of dual catback piping, as for the mufflers and cat conv. I'll buy those. my car is kinda out of commision now due to VERY recent brake probs, but meeting other Maxima members in the area is always cool. so let me know when and we'll see what happens!

Thanks guys

when I go to the track, the duals WON'T HELP w/ ANY extra power on the 1/4 mile let alone the extra weight!!

91MaximaGxR
