Got a question for anybody that can answer it. I bought some ceramic DC headers for my Z because I got it at a great price for being new, but I was reading that the heat shield has to be removed for it to be installed which causes the engine bay to heat up more. Should I be worried about it, is it gonna cause a problem if I dont shield it or whatever, basically what are the negatives???

mostly opinions on here, but why are people saying just plenum spacer without mrev for non-rev up, on motordyne website shown great gains having both on both motors, i don't get that!!

Can some of you direct me in the intake issue, I have an 06 grand touring not looking to do many mods, would like to install a cold air intake, maybe Nismo, K N Typhoon or other but do not want to modify sensors or other. Help ?

you do not need to modify sensors with any of them

they all work similarly, so go with what you like the looks/cost of

anything done to the intake and exhaust side should consist also of tuning to maximize the benefits
