will the apexi ws cat-back fit my 97 maxima? also, how would that sound if i were to get a budget y-pipe? would that just be overwhelmingly loud, or would it be quiet at all? also, do you need anything in addition to the y-pipe to add that on?

i believe the older apexi ws cat-back didn't have a hole for the
O2 sensor so i think they were only for 95-96...i'm not sure
but the newer apexi ws should fit on ur 97 max
and if u were to get a ypipe with the apexi, then the sound
wouldn't be loud at all....u'll definitely hear it, but it's a
very deep tone so not that loud
and no, u dont need anything in addition to the ypipe...it
directly replaces ur old ypipe..i'm not sure if budget gives
u new gaskets, so u might need those

i would go with the apexi ws if i get a ypipe...my bro's
greddy and wsp ypipe is toooooo damn loud

Budget does give you new gaskets
