Whatever you do, please don't go cheap. Obviously, the Megan OE-RS and the popular Cattman are great choices. But then again, cheap eBay axle back exhausts are also options.

I think the best "cheap" option is the Megan racing catback. As far as an axle back, the only option is HKS or Cattman. I would just do the catback imo

Yea, I was thinking about getting the Megan Racing OE-RS catback but they told me it wont fit on the 20th AE because of our factory ground effects. Is this correct?

The max is just my DD, I have my 350z as my summer car. I dont want to spend too much $ on the max because im not sure how long I plan on keeping the max. I am willing to spend $450 max on a catback system.

If you don't want anything special the Bosel stock type replacement does work. They only state not for AE is because it does not have the internal flap the original AE muffler has.

I have the rear muffler on mine while I set a bit aside to get my OE-RS. With the warpspeed y-pipe it does not sound to bad. I have had a few people comment on it. It is not much to look at though.
