I'm also debating on which Exaust I should buy, I'm thinking the 5Zigen ProRacer SP Exhaust ? Thanks.
A lot of the basic performance attributes of our car are nearly identical to the G37, so while there are some delays with mfgs officially tweaking and releasing parts for the 370, it's really not the same as a normal "first model year", in that they're mostly re-using the designs from the G37 where they already worked out what works best. IMHO, the Stillen Gen 3 was the best-performing intake kit on the G37 from what I've read, and it's unlikely to be bested on the 370Z either (assuming your focus is performance, rather than just obtaining a certain sound. There's always room for debate on what sounds the best. The Stillen intake sounds awesome though).

There are a ton of exhaust options for this car to suit everyone's needs. It really depends on your priorities (performance with an otherwise stock system? performance with lots of other upgrades in play? sound? (and what sounds good to you?) light weight? cost? ease of install?)...
