Looks to have a smaller canister than the Evo. Should look good.

I think it looks like a fart can. Get a duel tipped exhaust.

Dual Tip Looks Awsome

I would rather get a dual tip magnaflow then a single can type. It looks like it belongs on the Maxima. I like keeping everything looking OEM as best as I can. Heres a nice muffler, 2.25" Inlet with 3.5" tips.

Not all straight through mufflers give off the signature raspy rice sound. If Magnaflow is as good as everyone says they are, it should have a nice deep tone. How does yours sound OSoFast?

There are just as many ricer chambered mufflers out there too. I know a guy that has a Dynomax on his V6 Camaro. You would swear it is a civic coming down the road.

The muffle has deep sound to it, not raspy or sound like a civic coming down the road. But it's a little louder than HKS.

I have a magnaflow for sale if you wish, with dual tips and mounts already on it. All you need is the piping from the muffler to the B pipe, about a foto and a half and a flange.
The tips are solid, heavy chrome, squared off and rounded over. They looked great! Wife did not like the noise though. crap. I will post a pic for you lateter if you wish. I will also get you the number.

thanx alot guys but for the model number 14815 id rather put on the stock skyline muffler that looks exactly the same, but the only difference is that instead of being a 2.25 inlet its like a 3 with 2 3 inch outlets.

I run a 2.5" custom mandrel bend exhaust on my 01 5spd Max, I used a 6" round body resonator that is 20" long, straight through stainless steel, with a 2.5" inlet rear muffler section with dual 3.5" round tips- rear muffler is black with just chrome exhaust tip finishers. It pulls alot better than a Greddy, it gets alot deeper on deceleration from 5K to 4K RPMs its close to stock at idle, and romps like crazy to 6800RPM. I have a Cattman Ypipe and CustomMaximas chrome test pipe/resonated. The noise is there, and sometimes it drones at certain speeds in certain gears. But it sounds cool, and more like a Supra than a Maxima. Nice and deep.
