New Muffler..PICS....
New Muffler..PICS....
Ok , I just got it put on today. Sounds great, low rumble, loud, but not too much at WOT.....What do you guys think... It's ok to say you hate it !
.. NO IT DOES NOT SOUND RICEY !!! There are more pictures on my homepage .

Youre right there.. The muffler shop guy and I had a heck of a time lining up the pipes to tuck in evenly with the bumper..but of course, they dont fit in the slot.... I still think they flush nicely... My wwife and I drove to dinner and a movie, and it seems like every partical of rice on the road wants to race now !
Props to YOU BIG DOG ! You gave me the idea ! I recognize that 100 % ! Oh, and by the way, as soon as the Y pipe for a 2K2 is out, it's DONE ! I am working on a custom Cat Back too.... Like I said.. I copied BIG DOG !
Made by Powertech. They do have One Tip mufflers. I just wanted to keep the dual tip look...I loved the way Big Dog's Muffler looked ...he guided me to this muffler....I think the website is . WWW.Powertech.com
Just did a quick run through on your homepage. Really nice car. Is that a frost leather interior? Just like most guys on the org(except for 2K2 owners), looking at all these new cars, been considering getting something new. I guess if I'm not able to get something in the high $30's or low $40's, a Max like yours would not be a bad option. How do you like that Frankencar?
Frankencar is not in yet. Its on its way. Im getting it powdercoated RED with a RED Monsterflow filter...I am using a Berk Intake right now.. I recommend it 100 % . Nice Growl. Definetly a power increase ! As a former V8 MUSCLE owner for the last decade.. I say GO MAXX ! NO RICE here !

BTW: That is why I went with the dual 3.5 inchers instead...

The muffler looks great, kloogy. But my advice to those considering a Y-pipe is to install the Y-pipe FIRST. Otherwise you might end up with a lot more exhaust noise than you bargained for.
I realize a 2K2 Y-pipe isn't manufactured yet and the urge to mod the exhaust system on your Maxima may overtake some of you. For those among you, I'd recommend that you KEEP your OEM muffler for a couple of reasons. You may want to reinstall it after you install your Y-pipe. And from an engineering perspective, the OEM muffler is not your typical muffler. It is, in fact, one of the most advanced muffler designs ever developed. After all, if it's good enough for a Skyline . . .
Welcome to the club...
Hey Y2kSE, nice looking, welcome in the club... with the Y-Pipe addition your car will sound really mean, in my nabour no one want to race with me no more, it seems that they are intimidated by those huge 4" tips, some people who dont know about mods think that the bigger the muffler tips are the faster the car is... at least 50HP more.he he he

Damn, I'm trying to figure if I want to go with the Powertech, or just get the damn HKS & get it over with. Looks great Kloogman, but I've already told you that about 100times by now.

Hey 02MaXiMa_GLE, buy the PowerTech Racing muffler and with the left over money, get the Cattman SS resonator and B-Pipe for 250$. I though of buying a nice looking HKS muffler, but 400$ just for the muffler is too much for 1 or 2 HP gain so I piked up the PowerTech and will order the Cattman SS resonator and B-Pipe as soon as it's available.
