3.5 altima muffler

so i was looking on ebay and i saw someone selling 2 2005 nissan altima mufflers from a 3.5 and i was wondering if that would have any different sound than a stock 4th gen muffler, b/c i know my 5th gen oem muffler has a diff kinda sound to it also. i dont know much about these mufflers. can anyone help me? maybe get a bigger pipe?

btw i only plan on putting on one muffler, not both

I suppose they'd be alright but I'd rather get a G35 sedan muffler.

Nope, we the VQ30 masses lack a few things that produce the VQ35 note.

Even if any of us did have the answer, all sounds/noises are subjective to opinions. So what might sound good to me might not to you. I've heard it inside the cab of the Alti SE-R, and it does sound different, but like I stated earlier.
