For a turbo setup, 3" exhaust or a true dual 2.5" exhaust?
true dual 3" mated to a G37 coupe muffler (modified for 3" inlet) sounds nice and quiet! Not sure about power level as I just got this set up. Will be dyno'd soon, with and without exhaust cut outs open.
I know aam did for the z(like you posted) and There was one more, I dont remember who,
I do have the aam 2.5 to 3 inch downpipes.
I have a sedan, and I my self couldnt see paying 1200 bucks plus money to mod it, so I went to a shop in socal that can mandrel bend.
I dont have any charts on had, but Ive seen our plat form, as well as hondas, made the post power with open downpipe,
then slightly less with 3 inch
and even slightly more less with 2.5
spool time was slower from each step as well
There isnt at 3 inch made specifically for the g's/

I am not the best when it comes to all the different parts in between the the engine and the actual exhaust. I obviously want the setup that is going to give me the most gains.
I also emailed AAM Competition and asked them if it was possible for them to make the piping to fit the g. A couple of sites that sell the aam comp 3in true dual exhaust actualy would let you select for a 350z or for a g35. So I am confused as to if that is true or not.

Also the other company to do a 3in dual exhaust is APS, can't find any of those either. And apparently motordyne makes a 3in for the 350z.

Fast Intentions also makes a 3" called the Dominator. As far as test pipes/downpipes go 3" will need to be custom made.

Thanks man I will look into that for sure, i'll be going with at least a 3in downpipe with open dumps and external wastegates to replace my recirulating setup.
^Most people who run turbos don't have cats to begin with, the ones that do are using aftermarket ones with a lower cell count. The stock exhaust with just straight pipes is too small for decent gains.
Open dumps, 3" True dual.
My complaint... too quiet.. I had a custom shop make one based off from the stillen exhaust set up.
My exhaust is probably the one thing I love the most, monster 5" tips ^_^.
For turbo, go as big and as free as you can. I had electronic cut outs for a while and my tune was based on that. If you don't like a loud turbo car (which I didn't know was a thing) Then grab a pair of single chamber mufflers, and or do an X pipe... Or ****, just leave the Cats in.

In Cali, loudest isn't always the best. I know several people who own N/A G/Z's that were pulled over and had their car searched for illegal modifications just because they had loud exhaust setups. This state blows.....

A good performance / turbo spot should be able to make u whatever size piping u want with what ever size tips u want its nothing for them to do
Overkill. Has to be 0 performance gains over 3".
That's the way to go, find an exhaust that you like the sound / look of, and increase the piping size for your F/I... Best idea I've had on this project.
