Default New guy with exhaust questions

Sup guys, I should be making my 350Z purchase next weekend and i would like to have my exhaust ready to put on soon after. Now ive done some reading and i know it all depends on preference. Though i am leaning towards the HKS Hi-power exhaust system. I think it looks insane, sounds sick and always had great luck with their products.

What would be a good place to make my purchase at a good price? Is there any special modification required to install or any muffler shop will be able to install it?


Thanks for the help!

Anyone found better prices?

Believe that the part number is 32009-BN001. 2006-2007 Models requires slight modification or removal of EVAC shield.

awesome price! thanks for the info. If i were to be taking it to a muffler shop for install, would the modification be something that would be obvious that they know about, or is it something not noticeable that I would have to inform them about upon install?

p.s the exhaust in that picture looks NOTHING like the dual titanium exhaust we're talking about lol
