Trying to decide what to do about the exhaust in my 2kSE. I think that I want to start with a Y-Pipe and then move on to a cat back system.

For the Y-Pipe I am deciding between the Cattman's and Warpspeeds. I am leaning towards the Cattman.

For the Cat-Back, I was thinking goingn with an HKS or Greddy. I really like the HKS with the normal looking muffler.

Any experienced comments are greatly appreciated. I want the performance with the least amount of noise.

HKS does not have a catback, only a rear section. On a 2k2 the Y-pipe won't really give you much gains. Better to save up and get a set of headers down the road.

I just got HKS exhaust from my buddy for $180
on my buddys max it sounded pretty nice!!!
It looks awsome... i got warpspeed y-pipe too and custom b-pipe no resonator for more sound!!

I have a 2000 SE 3.0, not a 3.5 liter. Will the Y-Pipe make a difference on this motor?

What's a better muffler, the HKS or the Greddy?

I think that headers are going to make the car too loud. I would welcome a nice throaty purr, just not really looking for something that is too loud. From what I hear headers, although good hp, can really be loud

Perfectly said. For Cat-backs Greddy would be the way to go...

What is quieter the Greddy Muffler or the HKS Muffler? I can purchase another cat back if I decide to go with the HKS.

I'm guessing the HKS. I think I heard it before. The Greddy is just loud. But nice.

I haven't had HKS on my Maxima but I had both Greddy and HKS on my other car. HKS was definitely louder. Greddy had deeper tone and quieter than HKS.

On a 2000-01 the Y-pipe is an excellent mod.

I can't speak for the quality of the Cattman or Warpspeed products as I have a $tillen.

HKS is quite a bit louder than the Greddy. For those that think the Greddy is loud just need to keep the stock exhaust.

I had a cattman Y for sale for a 2k1 but I sold it! I landed up not putting it on my car cuz I didnt feel like dealing with emission probs, plus I sold it for more than I paid ;o
