Depends on what you want?
Power? or Pleasant Sound? or combination of Power and Loud Sound?

Option 1: Power
get a y-pipe with your stock exhaust. 15-20 hp very little noise change

Option 2: Sound
Greddy, Apex, or Stillen Catback. 1-2 hp but with pleasant sound

Option 3: Power with Loud Exhaust
y-pipe with any aftermarket Catback exhaust = LOUD!!!
( I speak from experience. I have a Greddy Catback and it sounds great. I added a Cattman y-pipe and The volume and noise was too much for me, especially since I am auto (drone).

Hope this helps

My advise: get the ypipe with a b-pipe and keep the stock muffler

 

If I do Apex-i with a Y-pipe will I get the loudness and annoying drone of the Y-pipe/Greddy ??? I dont want my stock muffler

 

THANKS FOR THE SUGGESTIONS I THINK I'M GONNA GO WITH THE POWER AND SOUND.

 

This might get on your nerves if you drive it a lot so think about it cuz you want get that much power from the exhaust.

 

HOW LOUD DOES IT SOUND, IS IT LIKE A MUSCLE CAR OR WILL IT SOUND LIKE THE MAXIMA OR SUPRA FROM THE MOVIE THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS.

 

Will Apex-i/Y-pipe be loud at all like Greedy/Y-pipe ??? Please an answer

 

Stock exhaust is good, get a Y and test pipe to improve...

 

if you like loud exhausts...get the Y and the catback. I have the Cattman Y with Greddy Catback...it drones at 2500 rpms...nowhere else really. That's where it's the loudest and most noticable...it's not unbearable though...

 

can anyone find out how accessible greddy SP exhausts are nowadays? i tried ordering months ago, but there was a tremendous backorder; so i cancelled.

 

Might still be bad. They are based in Japan and customs right now is rough. They are limiting the amount of stuff imported by some compaines. Might wanna call the US operations they have in CA to find out about how long for sure.

how much is a Y-pipe again? for 95 maxima gle?

and how much is taht exhaust that gives good purr? not crazy loud but u know, can turn on alarms...?

 

Go to a trusty exhaust shop and have them make you a dual set up. Lots of power gains and an unbeatable low tone.
