With these, and the rest of the modifications, i'm estimating that the car should put out over 300+ whp, and be in the 30xx lb range at fighting weight.



Yup. I've got a full HR and test pipe setup, and some OBX 370z headders that i'd like to see go away.


Do it.
Seriously 20 hp? Damn, that's not bad.

I'm jealous of your build.

Too bad none of those spare parts are good for my Z.

That link was meant for you.

It's alright. We'll see how mine sounds with the TS pipes. I've heard examples on YT. Sounds pretty good.

The Headders, paired with the Berk test pipes would actually work on your setup. The HR headders are nice tubular peices with collectors which exit to a full 2.25" instead the cast manifolds the DEs got. and paired with the berk pipes, you can use the same y-pipe you've got now.

But thanks though

I don't have a y-pipe on. But you can buy me the headers and pipes so I will test this theory.

That's the same exhaust and y-pipe i already have. only difference is the intakes and cats

on free rev, that car sounds like complete @ss.... I think the driveby in the video makes it sound better than it is -> mic isn't accurately picking it up because of how loud it is; listen as he comes off throttle.... If you are running cats, it should help yours sound better.

in terms of power, I personally don't think it's worth it; wouldn't spend my money or my time. still would be cool to see 300+

Yo Dave! Super moderater now huh? Sweet, man I havnt been on here in forever. I miss hangin with all you guys, and I miss my z. Don't do headers man. It is SUCH a pain to put them in and the gains aren't worth it. Zivman will tell you the same thing. But I came on here because I've still got a few z items I need to get rid of. I have some side skirts and the mud guard things for the rear all painted db of course. I'm sure everything is pretty scratched up because they have been bouncing around my garage for a couple years now. But anyone who wants them for spares just come get em, you can have them. Just let me know my number is 763-516-1537 I don't check this site often lol.

the design has supposedly been updated, and they don't fit in the 350z anymore.

Ah for some reason I was under the impression that you had a DE.

Saw the movie Home tonight. Was pretty funny. The kids liked it, so I'm happy.
