Precise1 Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Hey there Turtle9. Ok, you have a 94 A/T. Stock exhaust after the y on my 95xe is 2". You don't have to install headers, although that will give you more power... You can just replace the exhaust studs, and put in a high flow cat and muffler. Most people seem to go with 2.25" or 2.5" pipe; 3" is probably overkill for a choked 3.0 liter V6... Questions are if you have $ for the headers (recommended) and if you live in a smog strict area.

nakta Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 mine busted too, i got the thoreys, on backorder for a month. if you want them, order now and get in line. 2.5 is big enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z_Pilot Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 I think that I am going with Thorleys and a custom 2.5 exhaust with Spintech high-flow cat and Muffler: Spintech Website Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wheel366 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Check out my entry in this forum. I have links to the headers on Summits Site. http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=5665&hl= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slick Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 There has been a gazillion write ups about the exhaust and headers on NPORA forums... with prices, part numbers, sizes, fit, pics, install tips, etc... search... it's worth it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSM_guy Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 3" is severe overkill for any NA 4-6 cyl. youll lose tremendous low end torque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey.T Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 I had a long chat with the Muffler guys today. We came up with a plan of attack on the exhast challenge. Currently the drivers side header is as far as we can tell stock, the passenger side has a junkyard oem header with one broken stud. Based on him knowing that I can license in a non inspection county, new custom exhaust from the headers back. Appointment set for the 31st. Estimated cost $250 to $300 FlowMaster and all :cool2: He also mentioned going through the injectors and cleaning/replacing/upgrading. 130k miles may be worth it, one step at a time.
