Need Exhaust Opinion Please read and comment!

Currently i just baught a stillen full exhaust system
catback,highflow cat, Ypipe
plain and simple IT SUCKS
-Its louds enough to annoy me
-and the Y pipe will buzz


I am planning on putting a supercharger on the car very soon.

i want to put the BEST full exhaust that i can on the car.
Ive read the maxima bible in and out and it still means nothing without some backup knowlege from people who actually have the muffler running or had it.

Im looking for quiet setup, not obnoxious. But i need something thats going to get me some power when i put the supercharger on. Recently i was thinking of just putting the cattman header/Y-pipe combo on, and putting my stock cat b-pipe and muffler back on. I also thought about the full warpspeed 3" setup. Im not really sure and im super confused. This exhaust can make or break my car. Basically im shooting for only the best, i have alot of money and not worried about the cost too much. Im open to all sugestions but make sure if you suggest something you back it up with a reason. Please just dont shoot out random opinions. Please give me an opinion based on experience only.

thanks much guys!

Good luck.

I'm in that situation right now where I have the SC and am looking for a new exhaust. A while ago I picked up a Vibrant muffler but it was like 14" in length. The drone got to me and I put the stock muffler back on.
I haven't decided whether to go 2.5", 3" or remain with the stock piping. I'm starting to come to the conclusion that you can't maintain the exhaust at stock noise levels while going to larger diameter piping just to gain some hp and that you can keep the noise down by staying with the stock exhaust but giving up several hp. Its one or the other but thats what I'm starting to arrive at. Quiet exhaust noise is so subjective here.

An electric cutout is a good option

plus Sp2 is like a million dollars.

I think he wants to go custom for cheaper...but then again his first setup was from stealin so i guess money isnt an issue. I second the Sp2 if u got that dough.

I have warpspeed y-pipe. I'm going to get a resonated race pipe from ebay (trying to find one tahts 2.5") and a dynomax turbo muffler and debating between warpspeed and budget for a b-pipe.
