On custommaxima.com they have both cattman catback & greddy evo. which one is better in your opinion?
in terms of power gain and sound (too loud or not)
thanks

 

Just get the WSP Y-pipe and B-pipe with resonator...and leave the stock muffler.....if you arent happy then just get a muffler from somewhere...the y and b will help you more than just a cat back

btw i love the rims

 

Not if you plan on boosting. If you do, you want a straight flow exhaust. Stock muffler aint going to help, more like hinder.

I have the full cattman exhaust with pics on my homepage. I like it a lot. It is however really loud, so...

 

I have a Greddy Evo on my 2K1 with the Stillen Hi-Flow Intake and I love it so far. I would definitely recommend the Greddy, but I haven't heard the Cattman, so I can't say anything about that. btw, i don't think the Greddy is loud. On the Interstate in 5th gear, you can't even hear it. However, on the street, there is a drone in the 4th and 5th gear, but I don't mind it too much...Goodluck.

 

GReddy evo's loud with a y-pipe...
if you don't like loud exhaust, it's probably not for you.
APEXi WS systems are a very nice looking yet very quiet exhaust.

 

thx for all the replies
but what about the power gain? which one is better?(more power)

 

can't say which one gives more power but whichever it is....I bet there's like a 1-2 hp difference.

just get the one you think looks nicer.

I've got Greddy and I don't think it's loud at all.....but then again...my y-pipe and straight pipe aren't in yet.

 

ok this is what i gathered so far
catback (cattman or evo) + y pipe = too loud is there anyway to solve this problem? I don't want something that'll be too loud
y pipe + b pipe (both from WSP)+ muffler(any kind) = too loud too?
and all the gains from catback is very small?

 

get a Y-pipe, and cat-back, but keep your stock muffler and sell the new one. If you get the Greddy, i might be interested.

 

by keeping stock muffler = quieter?

 

Yes. You also have no drone at cruising speeds. I personally like the noise though.

 

yeah, I like Apexi's WS system better than Greddy too. Any idea when they will come out a Cat-Back system for 5th gen maximas?

thx
