Default Friend wants to upgrade his 350Z R

Hey guys,
been a member here for a little while but never ended up getting a 350Z.

However, my friend has an 06 roadster and wants to change a few simple parts.

1. Test pipe - likes the look/sound of the stock exhaust, but wants a little more power/volume. I know TPs make the Z raspy, but do resonated TPs make the stock exhaust a little louder/deeper and free up some hp? Any preference between T1R and Fast Intentions?

2. Intake - doesn't want a full intake, so will just get a k&n drop in. He has the REVUP engine, so what Motordyne combo is best? Does he need the spacer+MREV plenum? or one/other?

3. Spacers - Rear is too tucked in, thinks the front is fine. So I think 15mm would be okay, otherwise front will look too tucked. If he orders H&R 15mm Trak spacers, is anything else needed? Replacing studs? Nuts? Again, I don't have a Z and all cars are different.

4. Aesthetics - An S2000 antenna will fit right on, correct? And for front JDM clear sidemarkers, where to order and how hard are they to install? Thanks!

It's a nice car. 2006 looks the best IMO (nicer lights and hood combo). His is Liquid Silver with Frost Leather, blue soft top, tint. Will post pictures after these upgrades.
