My 2 cents, redback mild steel mufflers corrode after 1 year on normal sedans that get driven daily on the road so i can only imagine what will happen wen you go off road. Best bet is to source stainless steel exhausts worth the extra $$ IMO.
Each to their own, but the standard exhaust is made from mild steel and mine old exhaust was 11 years old and there was no sign of corrosion...Corrosion in mufflers normaly happens when the car does a lot of stop/start traffic and doesn't get a real chance to blow out the condensation. So the moisture just sits there and does its thing. I found this years back (20plus years) when working in an exhaust shop.
great feedback guys... for now I will go for the exhaust .. then a snorkel and then a chip and hope the missues is still with me...
another question, being a new GU, I got the extra 3 years warranty as well from Nissan. Putting in the exhaust should not void it ?
From the feedback, I am leaning towards the beaudesert exhaust...

It probably will check with your dealer what the conditions of your warranty are.
Do you have a price for the two?
Sorry I'm against the lot of you. unless already done I'd be fitting boost and EGT gauage so I can monitor any changes a new exhaust will make.
Could be doing unseen harm without them , thats my 2cents worth. Then Chip and Zoorst at same time you'll notice a huge difference then
Not much change from $3k for zoorst and chip

I have a beaudesert exhaust and mine sits quite high between the chassis rails I have never hit it bottoming out. I bought a beausesert exhaust based on that recommendation
