Default Stillen or Nismo?

I love the sound of my 350Z GT-R. If I wanted to upgraded my exhaust what would you recommend. I don't want to sound like a little Civic rice rocket but I do want a bit more Umph.
Which of the two choices and what is the horse power benefits?

HP isn't going to be much dif between the two. If you like the sound of stock exhaust - but want it raise the decible meter a bit (read: louder) - go Nismo. I highly recommend it.

i had a stillen exhuast. it was a nightmare, didnt fit right, looked like a huge can hanging on the back of the car. i was not pleased with it at all.

fast intentions is what i recommend. great customer service, custom exhaust options. fits great and looks great.

You won't feel horsepower gains with any exhaust. So decide on what looks/sounds best.

I recommend that you:

a. Set a budget.
b. Decide what configuration is best for you. Single. Dual. One or two mufflers.
c. Listen before buying.

neither. Theres so many other options out there... But if i HAD to choose between the two, Nismo for sure. The stillen one is supposedly really heavy.

It is slightly heavier. It also makes more power than the others. A few extra pounds in the back isn't such a bad thing, plus it's easily recovered if that's a pressing issue.
