even witht the restricted cats and ypipe?

 

Yeap. The reason I went with the APS cat-deletes is cause of price. $200 for the cat-deletes vs. $800+ for cat-back. All my mods cost the same price as a cheaper cat-back and got better gains.

 

have you considered headers? nice bag for buck if you buy off e-bay, i know you get what you pay for, but they seem to be decents quality and i haven't heard of any complaints.

 

I would never buy no name headers off of e-bay. I have looked at headers and plan on getting them in the future. My mmods I have right now are all bang for the buck mods. I haven't seen anyone show proof that they got better gains than me for less. Headers are $1k and you don't get much gains from them. About 5whp.

 

i keep reading about 10-15whp gains from headers

 

I haven't seen that on a dyno.

that was just one of many i found with a quik search for "header dyno"

 

Hmm... Maybe they do. Onnly thing I can say is that it was a manufactor dyno and only the header. Remeber when I said you'll lose some power/ not get the same gains when adding supporting mods.

 

i have been searching alot the last few weeks on the subject and the headers seem to really work well with many of the cars with all sorts of mods. if you do a search you'll see what i'm talking about

 

Might have to... I know I do like the Nismo Headers. Here here a list of mods I want: https://my350z.com/forum/2003-2009-nissan-350z/186622-got-bored-and-made-a-list.html

 

just from the threads that i've read in the last year it seems as if with nismo you are buying the name for similar performance gain to many lower price companies. i know that you have been looking for bang for buck mods. NIsmo might not be the right direction.

 

Well we'll see. When it come time to buy I'll do more research. Right now I just can't wait to get my UTEC.

 

well good luck and keep me posted

 

Thanks you too.

 

you gain a lot more than 5rwhp from them, lmao.

 

Thanks that has already been noted. But I still like to see how much I would gain from the headers with my other mods. I don't think it would put me in the 260-270 range.

 

all i know is after i got them installed i noticed a heck of alot more grunt at the low end, and middle/top end it pulled like a raped ape. Ain't no 5rwhp there

 

Well we'll see once I get back from Iraq than. Have to get my UTEC first.

 

what other mods do you have? any dynos or slips
