Truthfully i would leave the Injen intake, i have one, i love it. Nismo is rebranded AEM. Kinetix plenum instead of Crawford, you keep your strut bar and no core exchange and cheaper. Plus there is a deal for plenum/pipes combo i believe. Exhaust i would go with nismo for sound, injen for power. Insaneamine grounding kit. If you have the funds, do some crawford headers. They are absolutetly works of art.

I would say forget the crank pulley and the ground kit and get a y-pipe

Forget the CAI, get a Popcharger

I will say that it is definitely made by AEM, but do not compare them. The Nismo is worth the $265. I have installed both, and the Nismo is far superior. The AEM doesn't even use the same diameter pipe the entire way and has to use silicon reducers.

any intake (makes no difference...popcharger is cheap)
high flow cats
Y pipe
you could even sticj with your stock cat back if you want, or get whatever you like - the Blitz is a really nice unit and unique
pulley

you'll get a nice noticeable change in the cars performance, and yu'll set a good basis for round 2

i have nismo intake and used to have injen intake.

nismo is hassel free intake since air filter is in safe locatoin from water also it has by-pass.

injen performs better but if you're unlucky, water could get into your intake from hardrain.

i chose safeway so i have nismo now.
its up to you and your location. how much rain you are dealing with.

i live in NJ and the weathergoes from downpour to drought. I chose the injen intake before of the gain how much gain do you get from the nismo intake, and how much is a Y-pipe i saw a top seceret one for like 1100 bucks i think thats ridiculous. Thank you again

check our site for some Y pipes...there are quite a few good ones out there.

We also have the Unlimited Tuning ones available....we'll be adding them to the site soon

As for the intakes and water, I've had the Gruppe M on my car since last fall - it has a scoop in the bumper and routes upwards into the engine bay - definitely exposed to the elements. I have yet to have a single issue in 26k miles

Sorry for the hi-jack.

Does the Nismo Exhaust not include the Y-Pipe? Just wondering since I got the Nismo exhaust from the dealer and they had a $1400 sticker price on that exhaust so i assumed it had the Y-Pipe, any help would be great.

Thanks,
Vince

BTW- I did NOT pay $1400 for the exhaust.

Yes, the NISMO exhaust comes with its own y-pipe.

Do you have the version on or two, I think my Nismo itak does us a reducer wher the pipes come into the top front of the engine bay. I like my nismo intake, if you take out one of the plastic panels in the bumber, it opens up airflow to it and the thing works a littl better.

Why buy a Nismo CAI when it does nothing more than a JWT Popcharger? Seems like a waste of $150 to me...
