What Would You Get!!!
Ok guys, my next mod is gonna be either a new exhaust (B&B Bullets) catback or a 100 shot Nitrous system. What would you choose and why? I currently have an 03Z with titanium exhaust if that helps. Thanks!

Spend a little more and get a new cam put in. But, between those two, I'd go with the exhaust.

If it don't make more power or lighten the car, it's a mod I would never do. So between the 2 choices you offered, the nitrous.
But I'll throw my .02 in and suggest a cam and headers.

If you're looking for sound, you might want to consider lt headers and a tune. That would give you an honest 25 hp every day along w/ the increased decibels. Then you'd get even more performance when you add the nitrous. 
Given the options, however, I'd go with the bottle. Aftermarket exhaust will not give you any real power over your stock setup and will be several pounds heavier.

depends on what you want.Do you a different exhaust note or do you want that shot of power when needed.Quite frankly this is a question you need to ask yourself and not us.
Personally,I would change out the exhaust.

Exhaust will definitely give you more performance sound. Nitrous gives you kick in the pants from time to time. But if you want both of these option, why not try some long tube headers? IMHO Headers would prob fit what you are really looking for.
