It sounds good. Slight drone at low rpms (below 1700) but really nice sound at higher rpms from inside the car. I had multiple fitment issues when I put it on my 98 maxima. The midpipe hang ridiculously low right in front of the rear tire and my friends also did this. I also had to grind my O2 sensor to get it to fit because the threads were welded too close to the resonators. The muffler was of good quality and looks good. It was all polished nicely. One thing though both my friends and mine were 2.25" inner diameter rather than 2.5". I am farely happy with it but I have thought about the worldsport from apexi instead. Hope this helps.

Not loud enough at all, and I have a y-pipe...I installed it and it sounded good, but after a while, got used to it, not loud at all...Ill be selling it in about a week when I buy a Greddy SP Cat-back

What do you guys think of the Stillen catback? Does anyone else get some nasty buzzing noise when you get on it?
