After searching, i couldn't find the answers i'm looking for.
Since i know a fab guy who does amazing job customizing cages and exhausts, i might go with custom single exhaust. He custom made a harness bar for me and IMO it's definately better than other bars out there.
So the reason being for wanting a single exhaust is because of weight reduction, better flow and loud azz sound. (When to couple of Autox events and they got some ear bust exhausts).
I'm looking for 4.5 ~ 5 inch exhaust tip, and straight pipe after stock y-pipe, before exhaust tip.
Would megaphone type exhaust tip look good with bumper tuck? (im def tucking the bumper with single exhaust)
Would i need to customize the stock y-pipe also? (i got hr y-pipe. my car is 05)
What should the piping size be? what material?
How much would i expect to pay with or without labor?
thankz guyz

Uhh...why don't you ask the custom fab guy those questions. You can run a 6" exhaust straight from the exhaust manifolds back and Y-it after the rear pumpkin with a 10" tip. Hella loud.

like i stated, i prefer keeping the cat, and 4.5~5 inch for exhaust tip. Minimizing the cost.
I know i'll ask him one day but i'd like to hear opinions from 350z guys.

I run a single, with stock y pipe, tp's, and the greddy tic with the resonator taken out.. and its stupid loud.. way more that the 93. dba. Just do 3 inch mid with resonator and a muffler. Trust it'll be loud
CA is 92DBA...there are a **** load of exhaust ticket posts in the CA forums.

I wonder how some cars have crazy loud exhausts..mostly the ones have open wheels or old school cars with lots of mods.

I have a hks canister with a 75 mm inlet, 3 inch piping, stillen ypipe, and turbo xs test pipes. It is very loud, especially on a cold start. I'm sure it could wake the dead. As far as daily driving goes, it's not too bad, unless you get on it, then it can be pretty raspy.

If i have to spend more than $300 on custom set up, i rather save little more and go with used agency power.
yeh u told me to add the resonator on the previous post. Using the stock resonator, right?
just order a ap,jic,megan ap knock off, hks single, or one of the many others out there. don't fab junk up unless you are doing it for fun like i did with my straight 3" with on muffler.
