I saw this in another forum. He removed the pre-silencer and had a straight pipe put in its place. Sounds pretty good doesn't it. I don't think he paid much for this.

Damn, that sounds rEALLY good.. except you cut off just your center pipe? So if you wanted it back you'd have to weld it on? Also, where is the center pipe? It's BEHIND the cat converter I assume, and in front of the muffler. Also, how is the sound on the freeway? Does your car drone at all when you're just crusing around the 2,000-3,500 RPM range?

Yes, this was cut off so if I wanted to put it back on I would have to weld the pre-muffler. The reason why I did it this way was because I didn't want to lose the mandrel bent design and pay more. I am very happy with the results, in car sounds just a bit louder than stock and is not noticiable unless you turn the radio down and open the windows. That's why I am really happy, because I Didn't want it to be stupidly loud inside. Outside it sounds just right, if it was a bit deeper I would say this would be the best but so far sounds great for the $20.00 I invested

Is there any loss in perfomance? I guess there must be some kinda perfomance gain or loss you haven't noticed. If there's no loss I will follow your step.

Performance the car feals great. It would be hard to tell if their was any performance gain or loss. I feel the car is better, but it can all be in my head? I sure don't think I lost any... I highly doubt their was horsepower lost because I really didn't mess with Nissan's design in piping, all I did was take out their silencer to free up noise...

So wicked, I should just go to a body shop and ask them to cut out the pre-silencer? How does that work? THanks.

I did the same thing *and* switched mufflers and still have zero drone.

Mid to high end is awesome!

Thanks for the idea!!!

Default Exhaust mod

Wicked, thanks for the suggestion, I had the presilencer removed this morning and realy enjoy the new sound, much more of a growl, just what the car needed. I want to go with an aftermarket exhaust, but right now do not see the ROI for the power gain, so I will wait on it a little. But great suggestion, really sounds nice.
Thanks again, BTW did not get the 20 pricetag you got, cost me 50, but well worth it
