Ordering new 350z. Which performance mods should i get?
Hi all, new here so feel free to move my topic to another forum if this is the wrong one.
I am currently considering a new 350z. The thing is though that from my experience the engine doesn´t rev as freely as i would like when its approaching the redline. Is that about the exaust, intakes, headers or what? Also I´ve noticed that the exhaust is kind of spaghetti in the rear end, is there power to gain there buy getting a straight double system?
I am hoping to spend less than US$4000-4500. What would you recommend?

From what I´ve seen there is plenty of aftermarket parts for the 350. Are You saying the are no good or are You saying that my dealer wont put them on?

Just go FI! Intake,exaust,and headers do not make that much of a difference.The car comes highly tuned from the factory. I went with a Vortech Supercharger! It's awsome.Just my 2 cents worth. If you go to the classifed section you can find stuff used for a good price.Example:Superchargers!

Well i guess NA-tuning is never that good for hp/$ but the thing is I am not looking for a monumental increase in hp but rather just get some more racing-character into the engine by getting it to pull more freely all the way to the red.
Maybe its a strange request. It may be that I get to hooked on engine character from driving my AR.

350EVO 3.917 Final Drive, it'll let you pull harder throughout every gear, and it's sub-$1000. My $.02, if you can't make power easy, gear it down a bit, plus everything they've got is race-proven, and imo, we should support the guys who are out racing Zs and developing new products for us....(even without that, it's a hell of a performance mod)

The Nismo Sticker is good for 10 HP. Just make sure you put it on your exhaust for better flow. It really accents the exhaust and gives it a good GROOOWWWLLL.
Then next I would do the Tornado, stick that thing inside your hood and it will make your head snap when you put the pedal to the medal. It's good for about 30HP peak and 25 TORGUE!!!
Then for finishing touches I would put a JDM Lemondy fresh Air Freshener in your car, part #560293. This helps with the babes and I even heard that it helps the Z idle better. You can pick up this gem at your local auto parts store.
