its not going to stay nice and pretty, escpecially up here in the Northeast. I know mine needs some "motherly care"

 

OK, it's installed!

I LOVE IT!!!

It's extremely quiet, even with my Y-pipe and CAI!!
There is a SLIGHT drone around 2500rpms, but I mean slight.

The rest of the power band sounds great, especially WOT

I would without a doubt recommend this cat-back, especially for the price. I compared it to ny96max's (Anthony's) Greddy SP, and it's the same in looks and sound, maybe even quieter.

***I'll post some pics of it installed sometime soon***

 

i have pics, but theyre stuck in my digi. i couldnt get clear ones for underneath the car, its too cold. i have a nice one of the tip

 

I wonder if we could just get the b-pipe section?? I like that part of the exhaust but I don't like the thick tip of the exhaust, I was think if possible, get this bpipe and a different muffler.

 

cool!

 

i'm glad to hear that the obx exhaust worked out for you.

what was the price you paid for it?

 

Did you end up paying $250 for it? You really have me thinking about it. $250 vs. $500 for GReddy.

 

or $400 for the apexi ws.

i would love to hear the obx because if it's not loud in side the car i'm willing to buy one tonight.

araffio give me a call when you have a chance 201-993-3633,
thanks, Freddie

 

araffio -

Congrats on the hot new setup & thanks for keeping us informed on a great alternative to going TOP DOLLAH! Enjoy your new pipes.

 

Hmmmmm, this whole setup sounds good. i am in the market for a catback system, and i loved my greddy sp catback on my last maxima, but i didn't want to spend that much money again on my new max. so this looks like it may be a way out for me, and anyone else who wants to save some money. i wish i could hear the setup though. but i have to agree that it does look alot like the greddy. anyway, i sent out an email to the seller asking how many of these he had, and what he could do for a price. hopefully i'll hear back from him soon. i think this is a good deal... i think i am gonna go for it. well i'll keep you updated.

 

maybe we/y'all could get a gd goin?

 

yea... posiably...i'll have to talk to him again. i just got word back and he confirmed the $250 price, and he said shipping was 29.83 to me. i live in rhode island...so i am not sure what other shipping rates would be. i will email him back, and see if he will do any better on the price for a group deal.

 

oh yea, i forgot, he has 8 instock ready to be shipped. and how many people are intrested in buying?? let me know.

 

I am! Hey Chris, see if shipping would be cheaper for 2. We live close enough...maybe we can save more $ that way

 

hey I would buy one of this ,if we could get a group deal going on.
Count me in if you guys get a good price on this exaust,thanks keep me informed.

Just wondering: did you get an OBX muffler or HKS? The auction title says HKS.

Jae

 

its supposedly an "HKS style" muffler whatever that means. I guess that it means that its a cannister muffler?

 

i would take 1 but i would like to hear it first.

slimer got his for $220, slimer could you call the seller and ask if he could do the same price he gave you the first time or better if a group deal goes thru?

 

I paid $250 plus $29.83 shipping to NY.

After having it installed on Saturday, I drove 2.5 hours that night up to Foxwoods in CT, and back this morning so I got to here how it is on the highway.

The drone is VERY QUIET. Freddie, I'd be willing to bet this system is quiet enough for you, even my girlfriend said it's quiet, that's a shocker!! She was ready to rip my old exhaust off the car herself!

It looks IDENTICAL to the Greddy SP (I actually compared them in person to ny96max's and he was like ). The OBX has a slightly smaller tip (4" compared to 4.5" on the Greddy), but same design and shape. The muffler is identical, and everything is highly polished.

Fellas, I see no reason to buy the Greddy when this OBX system is so nice and so quiet. I absolutely love it! It is very, very smooth sounding as well.

e-mail me with any questions, I'll help you all out anyway I can.

Tony

 

hey whats going on ed. hows it goin?

i just emailed this guy again with all your questions and i think we might be able to work something out. i am going to wait untill he replys, and i'll keep you guys posted.

 

alright, well this is his offer to us...

1-4 Catbacks for $250.00
5-10 $235.00
10 over $230

it is not too bad... if we could get 5 or more people it would be awsome... alot better then $250.

if you have any questions for the seller of these products then email: auction@ssautochrome.com

thanks

 

That's cool that you're getting lower prices, but no one should mind paying $250.

$250 is an absolute STEAL for this system!!

 

yea, it does sound like a good deal. but do you really like this setup alot? i mean i am still alittle skeptical about the system, because i owned the greddy sp catback and i LOVED it and it gave a nice diffrence in power and sound... it was perfect with my y pipe and short ram, it was just enough w/o being anoying. but my question to you is have you heard the greddy and compared the diffrences in sound outside and inside? and also can you FEEL the diffrence in power? it is very important. i am going to get it either way because of your previous posts, but i just want alittle re-assuring that i am doing the right thing and getting the catback!

oh, and thanks for all the help and information that you have provided to us. i know i appreciate it!

 

Yes, I really LOVE this set-up. I already had a 2.5" cat-back, so I couldn't tell you how much power this gives over stock. Most cat-backs give a few HP, but nothing very noticable.

I've heard a Greddy from inside and out, and this is the same. Just enough sound but not too much at all. I have a y-pipe and CAI and still not too much noise.

 

I am in for the GD, or I will order for the $250. This sounds like a great deal.

 

yea, now all we need is 3 more people! come on guys! let me know!!!

 

Question

Is this thing mandrel bent???????


Anyone know of it's real power gains as opposed to other catbacks? perhaps a dyno?



There has got to be a reason it's so cheap

if it's non-mandrel bent.. then that's a good price for it.. if it is, it's a steal.

 

I want in on this deal, I sent you an e-mail, get back to me soon before my money goes out the door.

 

it IS mandrel bent, stainless, polished - same as the GReddy.

 

its fun to drive with AND has a nice tone. I have driven with this exhaust for about four months now and i still think that it was a great deal for a ss mandrel bent catback exhaust.

 

i didn't get your email.... are you positive that you want in?

 

Yes count me in, I was going to buy a hks rear section and budget b anyway. This is cheaper and it will look better, count me in definitly.

 

nice, now we are up to Three people. we have:

Myself
erty67
spanishrice

so now we need 2 people!

 

I'll definatly be in once you guys hit 5 - 11 ...yes call me cheap

 

So...if we get one more, you'll be #5????

Blkmax95c, did you see my post for a RI meet?

 

as long as i get the 235 or less deal, im in...thats what i meant by 5 - 11

 

no, i didn't! we have a meet comming up in RI? DETAILS DETAILS DETAILS!!!!


Cool, so we basicly need one more person now.... hope we can find one! i also posted this in the group deal fourm as well so we can get more hits.

OMFG, why didn't this come about before i bought my stupid 2k1 muffler?! it sounds OK, but i'm losing a little HP and it doesnt look as good as this OBX. ahhh, might invest in this later on in the year....

was that price shipped?
