I'm looking to pick up a low miles 2015+ Nismo with the manual trans soon. I'll be doing the install myself and having a pro tune it. This will be my DD 95% of the time.

A2A kit $6k
Fuel system $1k
Tune?
Clutch recommendations for this power level?

Any recommended tuners in the SW Missouri area or within a couple hundred miles? Tulsa, OKC or KC area would be preferred.

I'm going to go with a 91 octane tune, E85 is only available at one station in town. Looking for at least 480 RWHP. No meth.

What is the quietest (no drone) exhaust that I can get away with? I was thinking of changing to resonated test pipes and leaving everything else stock.

For the power you want, Motordyne Art pipes paired with Ark Grip CBE are recommended for quietness and minimized drone. Please also consider low-temp thermostat, larger radiator, oil coolers, better oil pans, and colder spark plugs as supporting mods.

Even with resonated test pipes it will have drone/rasp with stock exhaust. If going full Fast Intentions resonated exhaust is out of your budget, I was able to pretty much completely eliminate drone/rasp with my FI resonated test pipes by putting a Nismo axleback exhaust on. It’s probably 10lbs heavier than my stock was, and has resonators in the tips.
Other than that, I’m still waiting on my thaitanium resonated Y pipe and then I’ll probably throw my stock muffler back on

Go with the Z1 clutch kit and consider remote tuning with a pro tuner. Your tune will be MUCH better than a novice or less experienced guy.
