Wow! with only 57K the cat should still be fine. That's great mileage. Was the car smoked in? My girlfriend recently got her grandfather's 85 toyota cressida with around 60K on it and it's great except for some tell tale signs of smoking. old folks. I guess that would certainly lower the guilt factor :) I don't know that anything will get you 3mpg on the maxima. Actually Randy (aka Lordrandall) is getting ready to try something out from the UK and there may be a group buy if the results look good. It sound hokey, but there are many favorable reviews. check it out: I would honestly check out www.warpspeedperformance.com if I were you. Almost everyone here has something from them. They make the least expensive and best y pipe at around $200. Many would say that is the best performance mod for the car. They also sell the performance cat for ~$100. They sell a CAI intake for around $150 that is very nice. If you are just looking for slight improvement in breathing go with a pop charger off ebay for under $50. But again, it won't give you any big gains in mpg.
: I've got a 1990 GXE I inherited from my grandfather (had 34K miles, now has 57K miles).
: On my 7, I just removed them (pre and main) and installed a presilencer. No guilt about the pollution 'cause I only drive it about 4 hrs every month. (backup / toy car)
: As for the Maxima, I'm not really looking for more power (although better breathing will provide it) I was just wondering if my mileage would improve by at least 3mpg hwy. (The wife would need justification. LOL)

: So I can get a hi-flow cat for the Max for about $100?!! How 'bout that POP Charger from Cattman? Anyone use it?
