Cattman catback exhaust

Does anyone have the cattman catback exhaust on their 2k2-2k3. I am in the market for an exhaust but I want to be sure I research everything. Also does their b-pipe fix the crushed section? Thanks

i have the cattman catback exhaust. i like it. its not too loud like those ricer exhaust tone. but has a very deep tone like the 350z exhaust. in the cabin, its quiet. the loudest it gets is between 2.3-3.5k rpm. going full throttle you won't even hear the exhuast from the cabin. and it looks like a stock version but the tips a little bigger. overall, i like it.

for the crush bend. there is none as clipse said before.

Wooow, it's hard to keep with the news these days. I didnt know Cattman catback exhaust is out for the 2k2. Anyway, how is the power/hp gain on the exhaust?

Looks like Cattman is going to have some real competition on their exhaust system.

Frankencar has a much better price, and looks just as good in comparision.

I am currently in the market to find a Cat-Back exhaust, and was almost sure that I was gonna go with Greddy EVO, but I heard many compaints on how "uncomfortably loud" it is just crusing on Highway. I think I'll go with either Cattman or FrankenCar.

I just want something a bit louder than stock(just so I can hear some noise from the car) but quiet while crusing on highway, and from the look of it FrankenCar will be even quieter than Cattman.

it was with a frankencar intake and cattman catback exhaust. and thats what i dynoed at with 206 hp and 214 tq. but thats with one accident. i was expecting more torque. the frankencar intake was an extra 10 hp using 194 hp stock for a 2k2. i was assuming that i gained 2-3 hp with the cattman exhaust. i used it for 10,000 miles and the exhaust sounds close to stock. but driving long periods of time, it gets louder. overall, i do like the cattman exhaust better than the frankencar exhaust. cuz its ALOT quieter than frankencar exhaust or greddy.
