LOL how did it happen? I really want to know this! You must tell us what happened, DO IT!

Looks like the thing ripped off right at the flex section (after Ypipe), meaning you need a new flex section, cat (high-flow cat or test pipe), and catback.

BEAVER? hahahahaha how can that be true? big bastard LOL man...I'm not laughing at you BTW, but the beaver thing is too much and quite unusual LOL...

Your pre-cats are before the Ypipe, you ripped the exhaust off after Ypipe. Is your Ypipe still fine or was it damaged also?

Looks like you need a new flex pipe because yours is ripped in half, there is no fixing it.


^ See the stock Ypipe on the bottom? Yours ripped off right at that flex section. Now you can cut the messed up piece off, and use new flex pipe or just use straight pipe like the aftermarket Ypipe at the top.

As for cat vs. test pipe, visit this thread http://forums.maxima.org/5th-generat...test-pipe.html

BTW your car is probably running like **** because you're missing most of the exhaust, not because of having no cat.
