Just got it done today. I love the sound of it. Not too loud, no raspy metallic noises, nice and deep. Haven't had a chance to really push the car yet, I had the old exhaust in my interior wrapped in plastic and didn't want it punching a hole in my leather. The entire thing is in T-304, and took about a day to have done. They build to order.

Check here for pics and vids.

so thats a custom y-pipe ? i never heard of a brullen y.

Sin

They are actually an exhaust manufacturer. They do mufflers, resonators, tips, and even a couple cat-backs. Just branching into the Maxima scene lately.

do you know if they can make a y pipe to bypass remaining precats on cali spec cars?

Sin

I believe all 4th gens have precats, and I don't know an aftermarket y that uses precats.

Nice...can't wait to go for a ride Sin!

Sin

Honestly, I haven't even had a chance to really push it yet, so I don't really know if the gains are that good. Initial buttdynanometer tells me it's faster (found myself hitting speeds quicker than normal), but not definitively enough to swear good gains.

But if all it did was give the sweet sound, that would be pretty good too. Sounds just awesome. You guys should be able to hear it from the vid on that link. That was taken from the driver seat with all the windows up.

Could be that the ecu needs time to adjust to the new y pipe. Resetting the ecu might help it learn faster, and you'll need to floor it in every gear in order for the ecu to learn the new fuel maps (or something along those lines...I'm sure u already knew this, but just to let you know if u didn't).

Sin

Yah, I know about it, just no time to do it right now. I'll probably do it sometime tomorrow. Heck the stock exhaust is still IN the car wrapped in plastic man.

yes all max's have precats, but cali spec has 2 precats, so after a y pipe there is one still remaining unlike fed spec max's....is what i was asking

any idea on how much a just a B-pipe might cost from them for a '95 Maxima? and what size pipe do you have?

Sin

So cali spec's have 4 cats? I have a pre cat on each of the two y portions, then a larger cat. Cali spec's have one more? I had no idea.

Sin

I don't want to talk price because the shop guy asked me not too. All piping starting from where the y's come together is 2.5".

Sin

Dude! The car wasn't ready till 7:30pm or so, and I have to clear out an area to put the old exhaust first. BTW, I'm gonna take some pics of the old exhaust. DAMN! The thing is crusty!

thanks anyways.

Sin

Just call them and ask for Richard. Just tell him you heard about my exhaust, and you are interested in pricing.

Also, here's another place where you can view the vids.

All 4th gen's have two stock pre-cats. 99 Cali spec Max's have a pre-cat for the front bank of cylinders attached to the manifold itself. When you replace the y-pipe with an aftermarket pipe, you are only removing the pre-cat from the rear cylinder bank. 95-98 and 99 fed-spec 4th gens have both pre-cats (one for each bank of cylinders) in the stock y-pipe.

Sin

If the cali specs have one of the precats as part of the manifold, I think you'll have to have the manifold redone to get rid of it won't you? Sorry guys, I know VERY little about the cali spec Maximas. All I can say is, call Richard at Brullen.

Sin

East end of Toronto. Technically Richmond Hill I think.

Sin

Yah, I guess so, the hill is to the east of Markham right?

Sin

Thanks Dennis! I didn't feel like going outside and seeing my stock exhaust sitting in my car wrapped in HUGE plastic wrap.

muchas gracias.

tkl

How much did it cost you including installation? Did they put it on while you wait or did you leave them your car? How long did it take? Did the Y pipe need to be mod. to fit in you ride?

FYI, I have a 94 se.

Thanks.

How bout just Y for a cali... I may have read wrong, but would they do that for me ?

Sin

Again, I was asked not to mention pricing. Please contact them yourself. I dropped the car off in the morning, and it was done in the evening. They do it from scratch, of it takes longer than say Budget. As for the y pipe, again, it was made from scratch.

Sin

Someone else already asked this. Call them. Ask for Richard Garcia, tell them you heard from Sin, he'll know you're Maximist by then.

Thanks Sin,

I already read that and forgot to delete my earlier post

Sin

Just wondering.

Are they mass producing these? Or did they just do this for you as a one time custom job?

Sin

Dave got one done there a couple months ago, and posted in the Canada forum. He was the first to have a Maxima done by them. He had a y and a catback done. They have since changed the design of the y for my car. They are more than able to mass produce these, but will logically not unless there is demand. If there is enough interest, I'm sure he'll be more than willing to make a bunch of them.

sounds good sin... real v6 rumble...

Sin

Yah man, I LOVE the sound of my car now. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the performance increase too. Absolutely perfect for me. Not too loud, no raspyness, no metallic noises, no bees in the can, heck, not even y hiss.

BTW, I've opened up another site for you guys to download pics and vids of the exhaust. All three sites have varying files, but all three have the same two vids that have audio, it's just the pics that vary.
