Default What exhaust parts are worth adding on your Z?

Need some help on what exact parts do the most damage for hp, torque gains and for the buck combo? Example: high-flows and maybe a xyz pipe a good add-on for all three aspects? Heard headers are not worth it for other reasons. So i'm not sure what is actually good gains for the buck on exhaust systems. Help me out guys with your sage advice thanks!

Empower yourself and research in the intake/exhaust section.

How big is your buck?
IMO,if you did only one thing,I'd do HFC's.
Test pipes would be cheaper if legal in your area,

Speak proper english if you want people to take you seriously, and Test Pipes are reportedly the best "bang for your buck". Check out Z1 Motorsports, they sell a "Z1 PowerPack" with an intake, intake manifold spacer, and test pipes for under $400.00, I would do that if you're trying to get power for not a lot of money.

Still trying to make your Z original?
