Hello, I am considering about getting the HKS Hi-Power Exhaust for my 2010 370z. I want a better sound from the car and I'm not really worried about the performance.

There are several things that I'm concerned about. For those that have this exhaust already or any other after market ones, did you ever get pulled over by a cop saying that your exhaust is illegal because it's too loud and you have to get it fixed. If this were to happen, what did you do about it?

The second thing is did you have any problems with emissions testing? I know for the HKS you have to remove some emission canister thing, not sure if that would affect the testing or not.

The third thing is, what did you do with your OEM exhaust? Did you simply throw it away because it was too much of a hassle to bring back or did you bring it back? If you do bring it back it'll just sit in your house taking up space.

Fourth thing, what are your pro and cons of your exhaust? The only thing I can think of right now is the exhaust being lower than OEM and hitting the curbs and bumps when you go over it, resulting in damage to your exhaust.

The last thing is, what shop would you recommend to get this exhaust installed by? I know the Nissan dealer would be good but they would chop your arms and legs off for the installation.
