I got my new 3" exhaust for my B13 sentra. It is an excelent piece. Here are the specs:
-Apex'i N1 muffler with silencer.
-Apex'i 3" resonator.
- 3" inch aluminized mandrel bend pipes.( Notice that this are not pipes welded together, the only welds are on the muffler and resonator.)
The system fits perfectly and the sound is awsome. When you put the silencer in, the sound is almost like stock. I paid $ 600.00 plus shipping ($14.00) from highperformanceonline in miami. I'll post more pics with the exhaust on the car. Just wanted to let everybody know that there is another option for 3" exhaust, not cheap, but you really get what you pay for.

My boy henry just put his 3" exh.for les than 400. Here's how. there's this company in florida that sells the pipe kit 3" pre bent for our cars in like 3 pc, flanges gaskets every thing for 150+shippng, then he bought a dynomax ultraflo from summit Stainless steel (summit 60 bucks). went behind shea stadium to get everything welded 80 bucks plus tip for welder10 bucks altogether it came out to like 300 and change.but he wants a perf.tube resonator from dyno max to quiet it down even more for the sleeper effect.way worth it inmho. looks clean and sweet. that'smy route next week, he just got the money up first. Oh by the way this company is in florda named VRS exhaust for 3" mandrel bent piping for our cars

Not Isidro's website, the other one... that sounds like a really good deal to me too, I want to go with Isidro, but if I can get a really good deal for something good, then I'll do that... do you know if they have anything for B14's?

VRS is here (http://www.vrsexhaust.com/). I really like the system above, though...

I hate cantellope launchers, but I really, really like that system. Too bad the resonator is so small...

It doesn't fill the available space. :D Left to me, I'd weld the cat flange directly to the bullet and cut the pipe right at the first bend in the B-pipe and weld it directly to the bullet as well.

Seriously; the only thing I dislike more than cantellope launchers are under-damped exhaust pulses. The smaller the resonator, the more tinny a pipe set sounds, as a general rule. Mandrel bends also tend to lessen the rasp that crushed bends have. This is a turbo system, so the rules are a little different, but not much. Turbos almost never sound tinny, but I still like my sanity, and the more controlled the exhaust tone is, the longer I'll keep same. I like big, straight, perforated muffling devices, and this system is a really good start.
