No way would swapping out test pipes for a different brand make any difference. In addition I doubt the nexus headers would make any difference over the Nismos. Both flow pretty similarly.
You might get the extra 5 ponies from the crawford headers, but that is a lot of money for 5 hp.
Injen intake might give him an extra horse or two, but that would fall with in the difference between dyno pulls. IMO, get a lot of big fans running on the car, swap out the wheels and tires for some smaller, lighter ones and keep doing runs till you hit 300. Maybe throw a bag of ice on the plenum during the runs.

They may. When you get to this point it all depends on how it's put together. They don't, Nismo doesn't make near the power of Alphawerks/Nexus or Crawfords.

The crawfords on the otherhand flow unlike any of them, thus making more power.
In addition, where are the independent dynos of the alpawerks??? You can't base your arguement on the dyno presented the company.

look at how the headers are configured. The alphawerks flow just like the topspeeds, DCs and nismo. There wouldn't be 5 hp difference in any of those headers IMO.

how do these headers make anymore power:
than these headers (DC headers):
or these headers (nismo):
or these headers (Topspeed):

Ahh, screw it, I had about a paragraph of words and tried to attach pics of the 350EVO headers and it was too large, so I went back and the message was gone. But, i'm tired of sticking up for Alphawerks/Nexus, too hard to convince the non-believers.
Anyway, here's the hosted pic...
You may want to consider those.

My total cost with labor couldn't go far beyond $4500. I do my research when buying parts, about the labor, I'll just say I have very good friends

But, for example, I have the Crawford V1 plenum maybe if I exchange it for the latest, I would get 1 or 2, maybe 3 whp, its not that expensive, its easy to mount and it looks better! Don’t you agree?

Let’s see:
Greddy TT with InterCooler: $5600
TS Reflash for TT $660
Installation of TT $1500
Total $7760
With that I could achieve maybe 320whp
If I wanted more power:
Greddy EVO2 Catback $1200
Test pipes $220
JWT Cams $1100
JWT Flywheel $350
Average installation of above $2000
Total $4870
You go well over 10k
I spent not more than maybe $4500
HUGE difference
