I am still debating if I want to do the FI path... is it recommended that I not get the exhuast if I don't get the TT? Or will it not matter either way? Obviously giving more HP with the TT than NA, but will it still give around the average of aftermarket exhuast? 15-20hp?

No it is not reccomended that you get the Greddy Exhaust. I just wanted to go with Greddy because of the TT itself. I bought autometer gauges just to have gauges, but I will be purchasing greddy gauges in the future....probably for the DUB show on May 24th.

What would be bad or the reason for it not being recomended for install if the TT is not to be installed? Will it produce less HP than the average after market exhuast... I hope i am not bugging you with 20 questions here, just like to learn new things and also very intrested in Greddy since there is an authorized dealer down the street. Thank you again.

No problem at all, I am new to this also. The reason that I went with greddy was because that is the tricked out z with fi that I saw first. I went to a show and they had a booth and i spoke to them for about 1 to 2 hours abou the car. I fell in love with it. I then went and bought the GRIP volume 5. In this video they do an expose on the greddy tt 350z. So for there on, I just started saving and walla...I figured that the greddy exhaust would be safe since it was allready tested with the TT and I knew that I couldnt go wrong. The exhaust is pretty silent.....that is until i got my helix test pipes. My car now sounds like a hemi-v8....awsome.

Yea, what wouldbe bad or the reason for it not being recomended for install if the TT is not to be installed? Will it produce less HP than the average after market exhuast?

And what else would be different if I got just the exhuast without the TT... I am asking these question because i am getting the exhuast or an exhuast system very soon.. and I will be getting the TT later on, maybe next summer... just wondering what the effects will be of the exhuast without the TT since i may have them on without the TT for about a year.

Hey Ray how's it going. Looking good. Did you get the Autometer gauge pod for the Z or are you using a universal one? The one made for the Z are 52mm and won't fit your DEFI BF Gauge (60mm). Unless you bore it out.

Ok people it is official. The kit is at M.O.B. Works getting painted. The gauges will be installed this wednesday the 19th and the car will be fully done by this friday for DUB. Tuneing is to come after the show probably on Monday or that next friday. I just wanted to get the car done for the show. This is my first big show and I plan on making a good showing. Wish me luck. And yes...that is the kit that is going to be installed on my car in my sig.

Holla!!!

Yes the wing is included. The cool part is that the center piece of the wing is C/F. It will be left its original color.
