Preformance, I would go with a Y-pipe, But I would start with a drop first to make it look better and handling.

Welcome to the org.... IMO, depends on what ya want.... if its engine mods first, then get the y-pipe first, then cat-back... if its handling, get the rear sway bar (RSB) then do the suspension... everyone has a their own preferences... all the best and have fun doing whatever you do to the Max....

Btw, I think there was a thread like this some days ago... maybe you should take a look around and see if ya can it....

the first mod you should do is supercharge it, then get a few bodykits just so you can switch it like clothing on certain days

then get another maxima that looks like yours but keep that as the daily drive and the modded as the show car.
