Just put on new Y-pipe and Muffler for 2003 Maxima

I just put on a new y-pipe from warpspeed, cut out the resonator, and replaced it with a straight 2 1/4 in. pipe. To finish it, put on a magnaflow muffler with dual pipe. Also, put on an air intake from Cattman. Sounds beautiful. Definately felt the increase from second gear+ with the air intake. The exaust I feel at the latter end of second gear and on into third.

I bet it is, No Resonator! with a y-pipe and a dual out magnaflow My dualtip magnaflow with resontor isnt too loud outside, just inside the car. Around 40mph ***** shaking in the car from droning, I cant imagine out loud this setup is.

Why the Y-pipe on the 03?? From what I've heard here it does nothing for the 03's. Your best gains are from the catback from what I've heard. Thoughts anyone??? I've got an 03 SE and was going to order a catback, so I'm curious.
