Ordered Stillen B pipe
#1
today... it should be here next week. Meanwhile the Maxima is sitting parked. I choose the Stillen vs. Courtesy for a few reasons. Even though the stillen pipe was more expensive I still chose it. First off the Courtesy is on "national backorder." Second, after studying the designs of the courtesy vs. stillen unit I feel the stillen unit is a tad less restrictive as it also replaces the OE piece that houses the O2 sensor. Hopefully it wont be too loud as the stillen pipe does not have a resonator but frmo what I've read about the courtesy vs stillen if I keep the stock muffler it wont be too bad.

I was about to order the stillen but...
I went to a muffler shop and had one custom made mandrel bent for $60. I thought that was a pretty good deal and the pipe looks good. It made my muffler really loud though. I might have to go with a 5th gen muffler.

Paid $235 direct from Stealin. I coulda probably shopped around, but I'm in need of this in a hurry, especially since the bike will be out for repairs.
I was thinking about doin that too but the nearest shop is quite a distance away, and I figure I'll just put the stillen unit on. I notice you have an aerospeed muffler as well. I just hope the car will not be extremely loud cause I'm sticking with the stock muffler. I like quiet cars but I will sacrifice some quietness for performance... and my stereo has the ***** to overpower the exhaust! :-)
