I am considering going with some mods in my car, and so far, it looks like I will opt for the NA part. Not yet sure if I will ever go FI. If so, then Greddy TT will be in order.

For now, I am thinking of upgrading the engine. The only thing done so far is an AEM CAI.

What do you guys think of Crawford Plenum + Headers + high flow cats? Do I have to add the strut tower brace? or can i go without? If so, crawford strut is the only one that clears the plenum they make? or are there others?

 

Stillen and APS strut bar fits.

Crawford products - generally you pay more but you are paying for the best.

I've yet read of a Crawford hi-flow cat failing, unlike the Random Technology cats
Crawford plenums are always highly praised and dont ever have any issues, if so very very minor.
As far as I know the Crawford headers are the only long-tube equal-length, stock location headers available for the 350Z.

The header install is very time consuming, I say if you want to uograde your headers get the best and do it right the first time so you will never have to dig into that area again.

 

I agree with Mike and would also add that you should dump the AEM CAI and get an Injen CAI or JWT popcharger. The AEM, unless modified, has shown to loose power. The Crawford parts perform and if you want looks, get the Plenum polished. The Crawford strut brace is excellent and looks great. The Crawford service is second to none as Doug always takes care of his fellow Z lovers.

thanks to all for your comments. can't wait to meet some of you guys in FL area.

 

Just installed Crawford plenum and the strut bar (yea it's 2 am...) it took me 2 hrs and I didn't have ANY problems. Took it out for a spin and the But feels more power for sure. Now it’s time for exhaust. BTW strut bar looks a lot better than I thought.

 

I have the complete Crawford Set-Up.

Look here:

I'm a very happy camper.
