Shouldn't everything performance wise be though? I mean, you guys did an entire turbo se-tup for the FWD 3.5l, no easy task ...

NO droning...sounds stock at idle, and smooth on accelleration (like a G35 as mentioned above).....
SS is a must.
perfect fit is a must, of course

Just spoke with Brian Catts to see if he could bargain on the black CAI and cat-back as a package, and he replied that he will actually be upping his price on the cat-back by $40 when his new site goes online. Sounds like he has great products, but we don't all have a cool grand to lay out on intake/exhaust.

Thats soo easy to make, its what i have all u have to do is take the CM tips (not rear section) off and add dual tips.
But id say u guys at SSR would get more business with headers since there arent many companys that make some nice headers for the 5th gens.

9000 exhausts sold ? Man those have to be the nastiest sounding Maximas out there. I see more Greddy exhausts on Maximas than some cheap **** CM puts out. I don't think we even have 9000 members here on the forum, and if we did- not everyone has their exhaust. CM products suck, the only good thing they sell is the resonated test pipe. And once again I don't drive a Pontiac GTP or whatever they sell that has 4 exhaust tips.

I would love to see a set of headers that fits as well as cattman's and makes similar if not more power at a less expensive price. You would definitely have my business at that point. As for the catback or muffler or whatever you are doing there I think stock-like is the way to go. Oh and an intake manifold would be nice, unless the price makes it not worth it. I am not sure I would pay more than $50/hp(or tq) over a decent rpm range.

I'd be in for a set of headers for the 3.5 that were cheaper than the Cattman but fit well and produced power. They wouldn't even have to be as pretty. They could be all welded up like on the 3.5 turbo setup. I'm in the market for some headers right now. My main interest is producing power and having a good fit. The header selection is pretty limited for the 3.5 cars.
