Well it says its for an SE, and its a stock replacement, so it should be the dual tipped.

Bosal fits and looks just like oe. I replaced my whole exhaust with bosal from Autozone. Price wasn't bad either. If you order the se one it will come with dual tips and the chrome pieces are extra.

I just replaced my cat back with bosal from autozone ($115), fit was perfect, quality looks good but sound level in cabin is much higher with a low pitch drone when applying gas. SE twin pipes coming out of muffler look small as I didn't get crome tips. Good Luck.

My 91 SE has the stock exhaust system and the muffler says Nissan/Calsonic on the bottom of it.

Its a stock replacement, that doesnt mean that it is the exact muffler that came on the car.

Well the only way you can get a V8 sound is from a V8, alot of people will hear a deep 6 cyclinder and think is that a v8, but then if a real v8 pulls up next to it then they just laugh because they know how much different they are. A stock muffler definitely wont give you a deep noise, if any noise really, so if you want a V8 noise then why do you want the stock muffler?

i dunno, thre are so many mufflers out thee, most of them drone, i do not want that, so ill probably just stay stock, unless those aftermarket mufflers that dont drone add Horsepower.

If you leave the resonators and get a muffler that isnt like a straight thru muffler i doubt you will have a problem with it.

check your junkyards. i paid 25$ for this off a 94 se... tail pipe and all.
pulling was easy, the motor was gone so i jacked it up and cut the rubber hangers and was on my way... not too soon either, i had 2 days of hell riding with an open cat! (headache)

$25 buck is a great price since the muffler seems to be in great shape. I am looking for a muffler from 5th gen though so far no luck. Any pointer would be greatly appreciated.
