Question Which exhaust for greddy TT kit

I've tried searching and if this has been discussed please point me in the right direction. I want to do everything right the first time (not having to rebuy different parts.) I will eventually be going with a Greddy Twin Turbo Kit. I would like to slowly add parts that will help with the build. So my first question is, which exhaust will fit perfectly, meaning no cutting of the actual exhaust. Which exhaust is everyone using with the greddy tt kit? My goal will be 500whp. Any suggestions would be great. I want to order an exhaust before christmas comes around. Thanks in advance.

AAM TD 3" or APS TD 3.5". Also go for the dumps by AAM too.

I forgot to mention that I want dual exhaust. Can you give me more specs on those exhaust? I will be searching also when I get a chance. I'm at work right now, so any input would be great.

TD=Trual Dual. www.alteredatmosphere.com Either way you're going to need the Dual Downpipes to make that power or atleast help you make that power more easilly.

Thanks widebody for the info. Would it hurt if I went ahead and get the exhaust now, and get the greddy tt down the road?

If it were me, I'd wait on the exhaust and get the turbo kit first...

I would do the kit first then the exhaust but I want to slowly gain power. When I do purchase the tt kit, it will be going on a built block. That's why I just want little mods now, so that later on I won't have to buy them when money is really needed.

You can get the exhaust now but not the dual downpipes (they hook to the turbos) but you will lose a little low end torque from the exhaust. I have the AAM TD Ti exhaust on my car and I like it a lot, sounds good and you can feel the power up top.

APS 3" TD is a great option.

Forged performance also has open dumps...I'd consider those.

I have the GReddy EVO TT exhaust with my APS TT kit mated to the APS 3.5 Test pipes. (custom fab was required on the GReddy exhaust) I love the sound and it looks aweomse, not to loud and still flows fine for a 500whp car.

The APS 2.5'" or 3" exhaust will also be great, let me know if you need anything.

when are you getting the TT kit? It sounds like it's going to be a long time if you can't even get the exhaust until right before Christmas. If it were me I would just wait and get the TT kit first cause you are going to lose power with a TT exhaust on n/a motor.

Well I would get the TT but I just moved into a new house and I just wanted a little more umph in the Z. There is no doubt that I will get a TT with a built motor, the question is when. Like they say, once you go boost you don't go back. I had 2 240sx with 1 built sr and one drop in sr. That's all.

The problem is you aren't going to get more "UMPH" with an exhaust that is designed for a TT application using it on a n/a platform. If fact you are going to get the opposite effect unless you are always driving around near redline.......YOUR N/A SET UP WILL BE SLOWER WITH A 3" TD EXHAUST.

What was the custom fabrication? What exhaust were you running before? Did the ETT and APS 3.5s immediately increase your whp?

Well since you've been down this road, and have owned pretty much almost everything when it comes to the vq motor, what would you recommend me getting first (performance wise) that will compliment the tt when I do get it?

ss, I am in the same boat. I am looking to get some of the supporting mods out of the way. And then grab that TT. I plan on going with the APS.

I myself(along with GF) just bought a condo. So I know where your coming from.
