Default Finally putting a catback on the car...

I'm finally able to start modding the z since I've been working and saving. Also got a daily driver so I don't need to rely on the car as much. I decided to go with a magnaflow since it seems like it should be just loud enough. Noise isn't a real concern but after reading, re-reading and reading lots threads and info, it just seemed like the best bet for the money. Can't wait til it's on the car!

I'm in no rush really but I'm wondering what should be done next. I'll be getting a little something back from taxes, too. I don't know all the info concerning emissions, but I do need to keep the car legal, how much will that really limit the options? I've been told a bunch of different answers regarding if LT's are out of the question, can someone set this straight for me? Thanks.

Wow 7 exhaust mods?! Turbo must be a nice addition too, to say the least. Definitely is a trail/error type of thing to end up with something you're happy with, so hey whatever works! Still have PLENTY of time to think out the options, just picking a direction is the tough part, but fun, of course.
