Exhaust system

I am a new owner of a 280ZXT with 54,000 miles. It is in need of an exhaust system and I am considering an HKS LET-NO1. Have any of you had experience with this exhaust?
Thanks for your help. I'm sure I will be back with suspension, turbo and intercooler questions.

Use a 2.5" exhaust, which is recommended by engineers. The 3" is an overkill. A 3" can handle 900 HP...a 2.5 inch 450HP.

3" piping is way too big and slows the exit speed of the exhaust on the 280ZXT. Not to mention it can create unwanted turbulence; loss of low end response & power too.
