This. This what I desire my exhaust to sound like. Seems as if hes on stock 2.25 piping. Im so damn impressed. Seriously.
The startup. Oooh. It even kinda reminds me of my srt4.

I'd like to go 2.5 inch, to mate with my obx headers and y pipe in my living room hah.

Does this Asian 2.5 inch seem like a solid starting point? http://m.ebay.com/itm/271413214759
I'd chop the fart can and weld on a 40 series flowmaster, curious if I'd want offset or center placement for the inlet.

Do you think this would sound significantly different fron his setup, due to the aftermarket/shltty resonator?
thanks guys

 

A massive resonator would be ideal ,but maybe you'll be the first with this set up ..

 

Wonder what his set up is for it to be that loud. Maybe resonator removed and the Flowmaster? Sounds good though, I do like it. I'd prefer a magnaflow, tone is much cleaner. Dronemasters (flowmasters) notorious for rasp.

And to answer your question, your exhaust would sound much different if you're planning on running the OBX headers and y pipe.

 

See, I like the way this sounds, but I actually believe it to be a tiny bit more raspy, more "Ricey," if you will : 02 Maxima-magnaflow exhaust / delete res: http://youtu.be/TReV6Xy5YyI but he even mentions in the comments that the flowmaster makes the vq35 sound like a v8. Thats what ive noticed as well, and it seems like a good thing hah.

somebody needs to comment on his youtube vid and ask what exactly he did! Its a recent video, he should respond... I just dont have a channel and therefore can't comment hah. Fvck might be worth makin one I suppose. I desire this exact exhaust badly. Ahah

 

I just read the comments. His setup is resonator delete with straight pipe in place, along with the Magnaflow muffler. Nothing too big, that's actually what I plan on getting soon. Just not that muffler. Oh, he said it was offset/center.

 

whoops, I worded my last post poorly. I saw what magnaflow mans setup was, I linked it cause it was what you described.
my drooling, and curiosity in my previous post was alllll still about the flowmaster guys setup. His is a bit more mysterious. And needs a comment on YouTube to get some Damn clarification! hah

 

Sorry maybe im dumb, What do you mean, maybe ill be the first with this set up?

 

yesssssssss, I need this, been wanting to do it for so long. I don't know how to do it, do I just cut off my muffler and replace or what?

 

sounds like shii ....oooh before and AFTER!!! wow that after is pretty nice!

 

Right!! Gayest video ever, but it got th e point across nicely!

 

Sure you could definitely do that. It might make more sense to do something along the lines of what I'm considering in post #1 though. Or delete your cat. Or somethin.. if you truly want a crazy exhaust note change.

 

Obx headerz+ypipe+resonator delete and flowmaster 40.

 

It's so raspy

 

3" if you already have headers. Ceffy's selling them nowadays. 3" also isn't raspy.

 

The outlet on my y pipe is around 2 and 1/4. Hella weak.
With that in mind, In your opinion, is it really worth necking out to 3 after the y for the catback?

anddd. .
Monceff is sellin stainless 3 inchers?? Do you know how much off the top of your head? I don't wanna waste his time with a pointless "quote" request if its out of my range hah.

 

Sounds like a stock Mustang or something, not a fan of that sound. That sound is very non JDM like, at all.

 

I'm not sure what mine is but I know it's not 3" (y-pipe exit). And yes I think it's worth it.

 

Well the 3" would certainly help if u make 250+hp, anything less and the 2.5" is perfect.

 

"Very non jdm" exactly! I guess I don't wanna sound jdm, I'd rather sound... v6-y.. like a v6 that can breathe..
Idk, I just love this sound. And George, you're crazy. Nothin raspy about it to my ears

 

I can understand that, to each their own...That sound is definitely not very common in the Maxima world so def would stand out..

I think the setup you want produces less true engine sound and is more about exhaust design that makes it gurgle...whereas some other systems really let you hear the VQ beautifully and clearly.

Still, I,think both sound good. The setup you want is def. not ricey at all so either way you'll end up with a decent choice.

 

Yup, the stock system is good up to 247 whp, as is the stock airbox.

 

what exhaust tip is that in the youtube video in original post!? it's a perfect fit/match/look for the 5th gen maxima.

 

Dude. Do you have a YouTube channel??

If you do, pleaseee post a comment on his video and ask what his full set up is! I don't have a channel and still havent made one, just to ask this guy one question. Hah.

 

$880.00 shipped.

On my 3.0 I made 240whp with a 2.5" exhaust, and I made 250whp with a 3" exhaust. It is a worthwhile mod even moreso on your guys 3.5L.

 

how big are the 3.0 OBX headers?

 

Hello everyone it is so amazing to see that people are like the video and people that don't like the video. Let me just say that you to everyone that has commented and watched the video. Please keep the commenting going and spreading this video around. So a couple of guys had sent emails to me asking what I did to my exhaust. I would like to answer all the questions I can about it and more on my car. Please feel free to email me at tdsiebenthal18@gmail.com. Thanks to everyone!!!

 

^^ email?

Come on now, post the info in this here thread so we can cap it off nicely!

 

Hahaha true that.
its 2.25" piping!! Apparently he had 3" after the resonator, and didn't like the sound of it.
nooo resonator whatsoever.
stock cat.
anddd a 40 series.
he doesn't know what I mean when I ask him if it drones at highway speed though. Hmmm..

 

hello there, Please post some more videos of that system?
Inside or outside the cabin?

 

nice video man, im a fan of beefy sounding Maximas.
