Default Help/Info/Opinions - POA!

Hey Guys,

I have done a ton of reading, and I've come up with a list of things I'd like to do to my poor little Z (2006) to give it a bit more rounded grunt. Here's what I have in mind, comments/questions/opinions are welcome, in fact I'd like them!!

Current Choices:
- KCR TD Exhaust (HKS TD Clone)
- Kinetix High Flow CATS
- MD 5/16" 'ISO' Spacer
- Injen CAI (SP1986)

Possibles:
- UpREV Osiris
- MD MREV2
- Helix Throttle Body Spacer
- Headers (of some sort)

Do you guys think that the current choices would be enough to push out another 30bhp?

Again, gimmie some feedback and love!

What year is your car? MREV2 is pointless on earlier non-rev up generation.

Scratch off the TB Spacer, it is useless.

Sorry, meant to add that - it's a 2006 -

TBH, I've not done a lot of reading about the MREV2, I'll add that to my research list to do some more. However on their site they do list it for the DE (which should be fine for me ):

''A universal manifold modification for use on any VQ35-DE engine. When used with or without a spacer or aftermarket upper plenum, this lower plenum will make substantial power gains.''

I've seen quite a few people with the TB Spacer, will it give no help at all ?

Yes it does work for all DE however the gains very minimal on non-rev up compared to how much it cost.

TB Spacer are pretty useless unless you wanted additional ports.
