Ya they are pretty good over there and fact is they tune Maxima's for a Nissan dealership, they have dyno, they work on Maxima's constantly, they know their stuff. One thing is they may be a lil pro Stillen ie. if u drive your car in the winter get the Cattman Y-Pipe SS not the Stillen. Also question their HP gains on the ignition upgrade. All and all they are good and actually have a lot of the stuff in stock vs some guy with a cell phone.

Why get the cat instead of still? I thought the still was stainless?

Nope. The Stillen Y-pipe is ceramic-coated mild steel.

Some of those gains require combos ie. intake/y or intake/exhaust Also cut those gains to 50% when talking about hp to the wheels would be about right.

I can't tell you how many times I've looked at that list. Can't understand why they went with the Stillen High Flow rather than the PR CAI.

Because it's their own product.

Avalon is pro Stillen or should I say a good dealer for stillen. They will tell you that the PR CAI is better if you ask for options other than Stillen or JWT. Luckily we are educated enough to know.

It probably came from a random number generator.

Avalon is a good place to buy stuff and save money. I bought my stuff from there. Will deff save alot of $$$. Only prob is shipping time. They wait to get it from stillen then get it then ship it to you so it takes about 15 days but it's worth it to save lots of dough.

I bought a Fstb,Rstb,Rsb,CAI,Y-pipe,Short throw,body kit,and Lowering springs for CHEAP! Dirt cheap! he hooked me up real well. I would recommend him to everyone. He also gave me a real good deal on a supercharger if I want it.

Because you get more top end out of the High Flow. The PRCAI power curve drops off first, but does produce an almost negligiable amount more low end torque. It's also a little more risky (water, snow, etc.) and performance is dictated more so by the weather than the Hi-Flo. If this were a straight out hobby race car (far from it) the CAI would be more beneficial but as an everyday driver encountering all kinds of weather scenarios it's just that much more comforting to have the Cone filter.
