I have a custom HKS single I running

The Fujitsubo exhaust is nice if you want something really quiet. I miss driving around and hearing the spool over the exhaust/wastegate dump noise.
Some old video of drivebys:

the turbonetics kit does have a 2.5 inch down pipe, but the pipe after that, connectingto the exhaust is a 3 inch. thats why on their sight they claim to have a 3 inch down pipe. i hate to be repetative, but what exhaust would people suggest for my setup? Currently i have a turbonetics kit, kinetix SSV, JWT clutch/flywheel.
I'm running a very modified GReddy EVO2. I love how quiet it is and the tone is badass, but I hate the amount of money I've spent on modifying it and straightening out the mufflers
I used a magnaflow 3" inlet to two 2.5" outlets reverse y-pipe.
Here's a vid from last year on the dyno, listen to the exhaust note right before the wastegate opens up.

I personally think that it's sufficient for stock power and boost levels and has the sweetest mild tone out of all the exhausts out there. As far as I know my car has made the most power on these forums on a reflashed turbonetics Z, all with the fujitsubo exhaust.
Here's a video of mine with the Fujitsubo on the same dyno as Diwun's above. I love the quiet exhaust sound because the turbo and bov are really loud over it.

That said I've always loved your car, taurran, its clean as hell. (I'd slap a single on it

Yeah, it's really personal preference. I prefer a quiet mellow exhaust and louder turbo spool and others prefer to hear louder or raspier exhaust.
Agree that single exhausts look a little funny on most Z's out there... But if you are using a stock rear bumper and do the center mod, its a non issue. At first I swore I would never put a single exit exhaust on my Z, but now I think it looks better.

I recently just read that altered atmosphere makes a true dual 3 inch exhaust, and they can also provide the reverse y-pipe made just for the turbonetics kit. Would i see more gains out of that, or about the same as the fujitsubo?
