got my exhaust all done up last thursday. The combination of the Magnaflow high flow cat, 18" muffler and Apex'i N1 muffler sounds fucking good. And the exhaust shop did a badass job on it too. Well worth the extra money over just getting the N1 cat back. I'll have to find a way to get some video of it and pictures of the new exhaust on the car will come soon.
Next upgrade should be 17s at the end of the month as a birthday gift to myself

dan fast muffler in lynnwood. They did an awesome job with the welding and pipe bending, but I think I might have a leak somewhere up front.

my new sentra is a piece of fucking shit. Just popped a fucking random/multiple misfire code. Going to check the plugs here in a minute once the motor cools off. Hope it's not the fucking butterfly screws cause I haven't had the chance to take it to the dealership to get that shit locktited yet. FUCK!!!

my spec v ate 2-3 quarts every 3000-3500 miles.
a nice forum for that car is www.b15sentra.net |
he speaks nothing but the truth.......... |

well, i think it might have just been clogged injectors now. I put a bottle of fuel injector cleaner in it and it doesn't miss nearly as bad now. No misfire at idle anymore and the only time it does it now is rarely between shifts and every once in a while when I bring it up to about 5k rpm.
I'm going to run through the rest of this tank of gas, throw in another bottle of fuel injector cleaner and a bottle of some stuff that's supposed to pick up any moisture in your tank and see how that goes. Going to clear the CEL tomrrow and see if it comes back again. It only came on when the misfires got really bad. Hope it was just clogged injectors.
On the bright side of things, pulled the plugs and they looked just like they should no bent electrodes or discoloration thank god haven't ate a butterfly valve screw yet. No water in the oil or oil in the coolant either.

Try a higher octane gas. Get 1/2 a tank of super premium and see if that helps. But i also think it might be an ignition issue so check with a mechanic.

All i know is that back when i had my mustang i always used to put in normal gas and it would miss and have no power. Then i came into about $40 that i didn't think i was gonna have. So i filled up from empty with 93 octane and put in 2 of those bottles of octane booster. That car pulled like nothing i had felt from it ever before and all the way to the redline too.
