Exhaust setup for the Z

Exhaust setup for the Z
I'm thinking about getting an exhaust setup for the Z but there are so many choices on which one to get. I'm looking for something a little bit louder then stock but nothing to drastic. I also want the best bang for the buck. I'm thinking about getting the Nismo Cat Back Exhaust System. Tell me what you think pros and cons on the Nismo or any other setup for that matter. Thanks for your input.

I thought Nismo was more on the expensive side. If you're looking for best bang for the buck, I made a short list of what I'm going to install:
cai: $60 (oem with box)
headers: $589 (borla)
hi flow cats: $645 (random tech)
exhaust: $799 (borla true dual)
ecu: $500 (technosquare)
If you find better prices, let me know.

I'd strongly recommend against Borla headers....next to no gains
DC Sports are the way to go for affordable but decent gains. Budget no option, the Crawfords look to be the way to go
As for cats, we only use and recommend the Ultimate Racing ones...perfect fit, CARB approved, and 50k warranty, wiht no rasp
Been using them on my car for a year now
As for exhaust, its been said 1000 times - makes zero difference if you go true dual or Y pipe + catback - get what you like the look/sound of

Just to give my opinion...I had Borla, switched to injen wit the straight tips. Best decision i ever made. Looks 10 times better than borla, sounds 100 times better than borla. Ive seen the angled tip of injen, it doesnt really look "finished", i guess thats the word to use. With the angeld tips that have the nice polished and injen engraved tips...looks awesome.

I went with the Borla exhaust for the sound. I wanted something that was a bit deaper and still quiet. But when you put the loud peddle on the floor it still opens up and lets everyone know to get out of the way. I love the look of the Injen, but I wasn't sure how it would sound (nobody had it when I got my Borla). In the end the Borla was exactly what I was looking for.
