G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
With a DIY system watch out for drone and rasp. Manufacturers often put in a lot of R&D to help reduce these 2 annoying conditions in their systems and if you go your own route it's just a crapshoot. Stay with all the pipe diameters the same if you can this will definitely help. You didn't mention coupe or sedan but both utilize a y-pipe, not an x-pipe. And x can be done if you're going true dual but you'll have challenges with the mounting points since both cars stock utilize one muffler with resonators in the mid pipes.
Definitely let us know how it goes, I'm always curious how these DIY projects turn out. Great choices on the FI pipes and Magnaflow mufflers, hard to go wrong with either company so I'd say you're off to a good start.

I've been researching different exhaust systems. The only resource of sound is YouTube, which is terrible. Most exhaust system for the g35 seem too quite or ricy, too raspy, via YouTube. A few didn't. Some not necessarily home built but pieced together and these two systems. I am growing fond of fast intentions and motordyne. Fast Intentions will take 12 to 14 weeks to build, he only wants $300 down for the exhaust and $100 for the hfc and I can pay on it as they build it. Motordyne because it's 2.5" and it sounds mean. They are both expensive but motordyne is ridiculously high. The shockwave is for the coupe but I have to buy two $130 extensions for a sedan if I understand that right. I'm trying to figure out which Y pipe the shockwave comes with? I know they are interchangeable.
