2000 nissan maxima se 3.0L
Recently ive had my flex pipe go in my exhaust and was going to just replace it with an oem part but i got to thinking about replacing the full exhaust.
BUT
I dont want to get a stupidly loud one. I like the note of the stock exhaust but i want to give it just a tad more of a throatier sound. Does anyone have any they installed that wasnt obnoxious but sounds just right? (And not $$$)
Cheers

Complete exhaust system from Y-pipe to muffler tip. Includes Cattman Y-pipe, high-flow catalytic convertor, and Cattman Cattback Exhaust, and all installation hardware. Completely integrated system provides the best sound, most power, legendary durability and a substantial savings. 1125.00 for all sounds good

Gut out your stock pre-cats and get a warpspeed y-pipe.I just had to look this up but this is the best option: http://www.mandrelexhaustsystems.com...EXHAUST/Detail and then you get to buy your own resonator(s) and muffler. Thanks to forum members like CMax03 we have detailed info on what works and what doesn't especially in the sound department.

check YouTube and compare different cat-back exhaust sounds cause one may think Megan or cattman is not loud but other might think its too loud. i have Megan and warpspeed y pipe N gutted cat and its loud especially at high rpm, when i first install it was massive loud but after couple month it kinda tone down a lil bit or maybe because i got used to it but go YouTube plenty videos there.

In my opinion, Megans are quite a lot louder than stock. If you want more throat, Maybe do some form of CAI plenty of threads here on that. I did the GAB mod, it gave the Max just the right sound- More growl and it kept it moderately quiet. Just a hair louder than stock. It wont give you the HP the full exhaust will give you, But, It's free..And sounds to me like its just the sound you're looking for

OP Could also just get a Y pipe and call it a day. Keep the same muffler so same volume of sound, and a Warpspeed Y pipe is only 200 bucks, giving a bit more throatier sound while keeping the regular muffler.
Catback systems (megan, ebay, srs...) are ok, but they ALL have that gawd damned coffee can exhaust tip that just screams "pull over teh rice boi" to the
When I added a Cattman Y to my otherwise stock exhaust (aftermarket muffler installed already for months) it added a bit of "growl" at idle...a bit more volume in-cabin, and a bit more volume when whomping on teh pedal. But nothing bad at all.
