Sub $1000 Exhausts

The Berk is much better IMO.

You can pick up a FI exhaust for under 1k, just have to wait for a deal. I've already made a deal with a local member for my FI exhaust, otherwise I would ship it to you (under 1k btw).

Do it right the first time, or else you'll end up spending more money.

Well if anything happens to that deal then make sure to send me a PM. I would definitely be interested in taking it off your hands!

You are definitely right about me having to drop a pretty penny for the car! But I really don't feel like not getting the exhaust with the largest performance gains is really skimping out on my mods purchased. I have no plans on the car being tracked or taking it to the strip etc. If there was anything that I would be doing with the car it would be autocrossing it. I got actively involved with my local SCCA when I had my NA miata.

Even at that putting any type of exhaust besides a Nismo in that case would most likely put me in a way more competitive class anyway than the 370Z's stock class.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the F.I. TDX exhaust, and I do believe that is the best overall exhaust for our cars from what I have seen. My main concern with that exhaust is that it seems with its design that the mufflers become the lowest point on the car. That is a big turn off to me when it comes to buying the exhaust. The last thing I want to is be riding around town scraping my $1200 exhaust on every other speed bump. At stock ride height how much of a problem is scraping?

1. At stock ride height, unless you do something completely idiotic, you will not have to worry about scraping. Even with the 1st Gen of FI exhausts.

2. Tony took the "fear of scraping" inputs from owners and redesigned the system for the cans to sit a little higher giving you even more clearance.

3. I currently am dropped on K&W v3's with a 1" drop all around and have never once scraped. And I have a 1st Gen FI Exhaust.

As long as you approach steep angles and speed bumps as you should, you won't have a problem. Almost 2 years and not one exhaust scrape, knock on wood.
