I want an exhaust for my Z, need help plz

Badger

So stock Z right now sounds good under 3k rpm (I like the quiet, when I’m around town) but I want it to open up a bit over 3-4K when I’ve got my foot to the floor I want it to sound like it lol. Kinda like stock+ sound. Been looking for maybe a cat back just to get a lil more sound. Could use some suggestions

Invidia Gemini V2. Just loud and raspy enough to enjoy it, but just quiet enough that it won't annoy you or go on your nerves when on highway.

I would say Tomei was good for me it was pretty quiet in low rpms but was very loud when opened up. Tomei will be constantly loud tho if you get test pipes tho. I loved my Tomei when I was stock it was a good tone plus very light weight.

HKS High Power.Quiet at low RPMs but really sounds good when you put your foot down.

After listening to every exhaust I could find I think you would like AFE, hks, fast intentions, borla, ISR. YouTube. My top 2 personal sound preference are Greddy GT and the AFE. Top dollar ARK Grip. ISR and topspeed pro1 honorable mentions for budget systems.

btw theres a guy in the classifieds selling a lightly used hks in STL

Loved the sound of my Fast Intentions CB. Even with the cats left on.

PS: there is a thread on this site with all the popular aftermarket’s sounds. Search for it.

There aren't too many videos of it that I could find when I was in the market, but now that it's installed, I love my S-Tune Nismo. Perfect fitment, stock+ type of sound and look (in my opinion). I had a Tomei and it just became too loud for me and I wanted something a little more classy.

I forgot, I made this as soon as I installed it, sound check for Invidia Gemini V2

I love my AAM Competition axle back muffler. Quiet at low RPMs, opens up at WOT. Absolutely no drone anywhere in the rev range. Believe me, I've tried a lot of exhausts and I always come back to this one. Perfect fit and extremely well-made.

Also have the Invidia Gemini. It's just loud enough to be fun but not loud enough to be annoying. And the tone is very nice.

there's no shortage of options and reviews and videos available. Pick the one you like

Generally though, Fast Intentions and Motordyne have been commonly accepted as good quality and sound. FI is more bearable on a daily; the motordyne gives you a different deeper sound

Your primary concerns should be:
build quality
ride height, it should not sit lower than stock
customer support

for power, you're going to be looking beyond just the exhaust

HKS hi power exhaust is my recommendation. Great look, fitment and I love the exhaust note. Nice and throaty around 3k rpms. I've had this exhaust on my Z and G35 coupe. Like someone already stated, it's quiet when cruising but really opens up when you floor it. I love how it sounds at 7500 rpms!
