Ohhhhhhhh Rogue!!!




Next weekend, I'm going to go pick up Tamara'* 2000 SSEi. What I'm wondering is, what is the best exhaust I should go with? Hmmmm....

Among the first on the list will be intake and pulley. I'll do some more reading before I ask too many more questions...

That'* cool your buying Tamaras SSEi, how many miles on it?

As for exhuast, Not many of us +00 ssei'* have exhuast work done, Some nice shiney TOG'* or SLP headers is a must to start with though. As for mufflers, it'* all about what sound and performance are you looking for.

As for the best, I'd say Corsa'* Wbody system, all stainless with Mandrell bends but the coolest part is they have sound cancelation, which when crusing the exhaust is almost as quite as stock, but at full throttle it ROARS.

http://www.corsaperf.com/mid-size_cars.htm you'd have to modify it to fit our H-bodies of just use the mufflers and tips, oh and there dual tips are the nicest too

I bought there Caddy STS kit and modified it to fit my Aurora, Sounded great!!!

Other wise there'* many muffler companies out there.
Enjoy your new +00 SSEi.

Stock exhaust on the 00+ is pretty free flowing. Unless you want to change it for the sound alone its not really worth it. The stock exhaust including mufflers and resonator are stainless steel and practically rust-through proof.

FWI + 3.4pulley + INTENSE PCM will wake up that car something fierce. Throw in some rockers or a cam and hold on

I'd definetly look at borla, corsa etc. Corsa will run you more then others, but it'* top level.

I'd check out what flowmaster has as well, a couple of 50 series under there will be nice.

I'll agree, a pulley, PCM, intake, exhaust will light the fire! Rockers fuel it...
