Anyone with Cattman Catback whole exhaust???

Hey did anyone buy the Cattman Catback whole exhaust for their Max, not just the muffler section but the whole exhaust.
If anyone does have that system then was wondering how does that system sound; is it loud, does it sound good, and is it any different from just the muffler section sound???

i have the cattman set up from the y pipe back. i think it sounds great. it has a deep tone to it but it doesn't drone on the highway.. definetly worth it. good product and always a pleasure to deal with which makes it a plus.there was an exhaust threrad a little while back that has a lot of clips. check it out

Yeah I searched through that Video clip thread myself and many of those didn't work, or they had cattman combined with some other brands.
Well I have just cattman muffler only for now, and was thinking to get the rest of the pipes. Well I would defenetly LOVE to hear that whole cattman system. I believe that it would sound great cause just my muffler section already sounds awsome, but wanted to know how much different it is with the rest of the pipes.

Nope never heard one ever in my life....seen a few on the freeway but never heard them go WOT...don't think I ever will either since those cars are very rare...

I've heard a ferrari 360 Modena go WOT in person....sounds absolutely marvelous...but I won't consider a ferrari (or a lamborghini for that matter) to be among the normal driven crowd.

So once again let me re-phrase my original statement..."sounds MEAN as hell....never heard a non-exotic car sound this nice"

is the mossy identical to the cattman?
or is blackbirds setup basically just like a full cattman headers all the way back setup but on a VQ30DE-K?


btw....steven88...do you happen to have an inside/interior vid of driving with that exhaust setup?

yes the mossy is identical to the cattman catback...Stromug makes the catback...Mossy & Cattman just buys it off them and re-sells it....except the Mossy one is a little cheaper than Cattman? Hope to get Blackbird in here to clarify...

No i don't have any clips of the interior...maybe one day I'll try it out

I really must see your car some day Steven88. Thinking of going with HS Headers and Frankencar catback once I get some money saved up here soon.

Sorry for getting off the Cattman subject, but I have a complete after market system (Custom Enterprise Y-pipe and Frankencar Catback) and it doesn't sound good at all. I get the "bees in a can" sound above 2,000 RPM and with intermitten drone at highways speeds with some drone a lower speeds. I am bewildered as to why. A complete Cattman system that sounds the way I'd like mine to sound. Any suggestions other than going with Cattman at this point?

The bees-in-can sound is probably the y-pipe

I can't agree with u anymore...the quality of mpg files is NOWHERE near the quality of listening to the car in person....lets just say the mpg files only picked up about 50% of the sounds....it does sound ALOT better if u hear it in person...

as PuppetMaster would say "cameras don't always do justice"

I never knew either....I always wonder how headers would sound on a maxima...before I got mine, I've been doing alot of research on the .org...and let me tell u...to those members who installed headers on their car....they say the power is amazing...but the SOUND is what gets them the most....I never really believed that until I installed mine...yes the sound of these headers is something to die for....
