What is the best exhaust to buy

I am wanting to buy a catback exhaust system for my car and I am wondering what is the best one to buy when it comes to the biggest HP and ft/lbs gains. Also, I don't want a ricey sound to my maxima, I want it to have a nice lower tone to it, but I don't want it to be insanely loud. I was thinking about the cattman system, greddy, or the custom enterprises dual exhaust system which comes with a flowmaster muffler, does anyone have any info that could help me?

You can also do a search for more threads using the Search process outlined in the Stickies, since ya don't have access to the forum's search function... either that or just go back and look through the old posts...

FYI 3.0L exhausts sound totally diff than 3.5L exhausts, and this is due to different bore/stroke heads cams etc. Don't be too supprised if you get a exhaust for a 3.0L thinking it will sound like a 350Z, it will not.

FYI I know that the VQ30 has a different bore and stroke than the VQ35. They are, after all, two different engines.
