Get custom 2.5 inch piping from the cat back to the muffler (keep stock muffler unless you want some noise, good noise, but noise). I got mine installed with a resonator for $165. That berk intake sounds reasonable... I made an OSCAI myself which seems to work decently. I figured Nissan engineered the stock airbox to allow for good torque using resonance, so might as well keep that advantage combined with plentiful outside cold air using a ram air idea to keep a nice supply comin into the engine bay. Of course it goes a K&N filter

i say work on suspension first before engine mods, the maxima already has massive torque and power and especially since you have a 5.5gen. the maxima has huge body roll and wheel gaps to go along with it...get a RSB, some coilovers or struts, then just go full exhaust from headers back...intake, and go on from there...thats all IMO of course...happy modding =)

JohnDoe, just curious, but according to your birthday in your profile, you're only 14 years old. I don't think you're old enough for a permit yet.
