ok, im gonna do all N/A and wanted, roughly around 270-280 rwhp, in order to get that, what parts should i get?....and by the way im gonna go with the tilton full street clutch and 8lb flywheel as well. But what performance parts should i go with?...

 

plenum, headers, exhaust, ecu reflash.... to name a few

 

cams, intake, cat pipes, pulleys and ECU reflash for SURE! 3.9 final drive gears if you want it to be a bit quicker up top

 

ok i understand all these parts, but which company makes the best parts for each of these?...

 

man oh man....different products come with different pros n cons. my suggestion is do searches for each part you want. "intake", "cams", "exhaust", etc etc. read the big threads and see what people have to say about each product. some products are overpriced and do nothing at all. do some homework and it will save you $ and trouble

 

right now, i have the jwt popcharger, nismo catback, and i know im getting the tilton full street clutch+flywheel package, and didnt know what other brands are the best for the money, i know i want the crawford hi-flo cats, didnt know exactly what headers yet, i want the crawford v5 plenum and technosquares ecu reflash, and UR crank pully, i didnt know what cams though either

 

i think crawford plenum and headers are one of the best out there now

 

From what I have read:

JWT PopCharger
Nismo Catback
Crawford Headers
Crawford Plenum (APS is what I will be going with)
Crawford Cats
UR Crank Pulley
TechnoSquare Reflash
Tomei cams (spelling?)

I think that will bump 280+ rwhp. Probably closer to 290rwhp.

 

Good thread. I've been thinking about FI (stillen stage 3) butI'm really concerned about long term reliabilty and other mods that will be required. I'm just now loooking at available NA and FI options. thanks for the info.

 

i dont know if any of you have watchd the 350z shootout from bestmotoring....but the espirit version was pushing 350 to the wheels with cam/computer work.....ther is an other thread askin if they can make 300whp w/ out FI and the answer is yes.....just need to do ur research.

 

Not sure about the JWT popcharger here, seeing as it sits so close to the engine and all the heat that comes with it.
I've heard solid numbers from the Injen intake and I talked to Rob at ZDriver and he told me they had great success tuning a car using a piggyback ECU (Exede I think). They were getting around 278whp and not running lean.
