Is that good to buy? I want to get that and put a K & N filter on it... i just dont know where i can get a good deal on those... or should i get a MAF adapter and just a filter ?

and one more question what kind of paint should i use to paint the tube ?

Feel free to flame me... but i did read all the damn intake posts... and everyperson suggests a different set up... and i decided to get that short ram and a knk filter.

Also was wondering if fender vents would help ? it would allow colder air to enter the compartment... maybe build a custom vent pointing to the outside.. i dunno...

In honnesty if your not willing to spend some money in order to get some good performance out of your car then maybe modding your car isnt the best thing for you. Or purchase an already modded car so you dont have to do any work.

Intake give a minimal increase. Y pipe is the best bang for buck and depending on how much power you want to get out of your car, or have in your car that will decide the next step.

Infowire

so seems like everyone changes their y pipe.. whats it add like 15 hp ? what do they go for ? maybe i should get a used one

NmexMAX

iTrader: (22)

Get headers, a/f tune ( equilibrium....and call it good...)

sonicrunch

Y-pipe is the best first mod.

Buy a new one.

FYI, Some of the stickies are horribly outdated.

wat about a cai?? stay stock or put in cai??

You're going to need to donate another 20 dollars after that statement.


You have the search option, so it's time to use it!



Whatever setup you go with, you'll eventually end up back with stock.

Short ram intake will not save you gas...nor will it pump up an extra 10 hp. You'll actually feel your car struggle in the low end power and won't hear "the growl" until you hit high end.

LOL@10HP GAIN..

Infowire

is it worth getin a aftermarket high flow cat converter? it suposedly adds like 20+ HP with the Y pipe...


is the custom enterprise y-pipe good ?

MDeezy

iTrader: (27)

20 hp is a bit much for the Y+high flow cat. The Gains given by the high flow cat are very minimal, the y pipe is where most of the gain it.

Infowire

so.. i have to do like -10hp from everything that says about howmuch HP it adds.. heh isnt there a guranteed way of adding like 20 hp without spending like 800$

MDeezy

iTrader: (27)

in short. . . .. not really.

well an 00vi could get you that in a way, and it wouldnt cost $800 for it.

gx2nds4

ecu + y-pipe? maybe b-pipe too

Infowire

i want to do the ECU... but i dont think theres anything i can do to that.... my top speed isnt limited and the chip doesnt do much i herd....

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Nissa...spagenameZWDVW

someone tell me if thats ^^^ a good deal or not...

they got reviewd by http://www.vqpower.com/v2/modules.ph...article&sid=88

Vlasic

iTrader: (13)

You heard wrong.

thats crap.

gx2nds4

Y + b pipe is probably your best bet you won't get 20 but you'll be close i'd like to think 15+ but someone correct me if i'm wrong.

Godson

I like to call it video game syndrome....My boy is a need for speed addict,and swears that everything he puts on his car has to add some significant HP,like oh yea my CAI added about 15hp,and my UDP added about 10hp and my ricer sticker added about 5hp...lol

Infowire

300$ for a y pipe ... i can and will put a comp(shuttle) in the trunk for 200$ and it will be more worth it for the money... mp3's... mapquest .... wirless internet... webbrowsing.... winamp vizualizations =) .. **** ? o=) with a wireless mouse and a wirelss virtual keyboard... I havent seen that on a maxi yet so ill be unique =P

seanish4042

yeah man thats why i got a car. so i could search the ****ing internet, watch movies, and punch my goddam clown.

i will never understand heads throw down serious loot to do that **** to their car. so stupid

Vlasic

iTrader: (13)

its been done and no way can you do that for only $200. And, why dont oyu search some more? You can get a ypipe for $200 shipped from warpspeed or budget, or get a used one for even less.

Godson

LMAO Im glad to hear someone else say that,Ive been talking to friends about some things I would like to try on the Max that would be kinda unique and for some reason I've heard that very statement like 10 times.....that alone makes me not want it,let alone the "absurd" factor

This thread is f'n ridiculous. If you can search how can you not know all this information and keep posting stupid $hit. There's no reason to spend $300 on a y-pipe. Just because the product information may say +20hp or whatnot it doesnt mean it will. Go ahead and buy some audio $hit and stop talking about performance if you're not gonna drop $$. Do what you want with the car, of course it's yours. But dont get pissed when everyone on here tells you what to do and you give some crap reason against it or that its a waste. You cant buy all your $hit from ebay and expect to have a big hp jump.

yo, stay with the stock intake with a k/n filter, get a budget y-pipe. these mods will only cost about 300.00 max installed. then go with nitrous or a ecu. personally with gas prices I say nitrous so you can run 87 or 89 allday then run 93-94 when you want the juice since your being cheap. you can buy a ecu from some one for around 250-500 bucks and a zex kit for around 500.00 .... so there you go now you have 15 to a possible 90hp for less then a 1000.00 DOLLARS
