PM member evohunter he is a member I know locally who has the Stillen kit on his car. Get the inside line from someone who has the inside track on the system.
Maybe give the article comparing different turbo and supercharged systems a read in the Forced Induction section before you get your heart set on something.

Now to address the actual question. Wait on the exhaust until you are set on your FI choice. Your Gen 3s will go bye when the FI system you choose comes with its own intake system

If you are getting your Z super charged there was no point in getting the Stillen gen 3 intakes. Once you go super charge all the intake parts will be replaced by the kit. You would have been better off just getting the exhaust first just my

The exhaust, go with a good quality 2.5" system and you will be set for a supercharger.

Yep, great choice.
It is what I run with my GTM SC kit and love it.

I had my dyno in 100° Texas summer heat, also we did not push mine as I DD my car. I have over 25k miles on my kit (overall 46k miles on the car) and still going strong. You can get more power out of the kit with a more aggressive tune, meth, etc.

Not currently, I might do the 1.5 setup but currently focusing on other items such as clutch/flywheel/CSC & brakes.
