Install varies on your location. Labor rates always fluctuate, dealership rates are always the most expensive.

nothingremains: I ordered everything from Perfromance Nissan (MyNismo.com) and Andy will give you the link to each part.

I would suggest it. I would also suggest trying to get a local 350Z meet going to learn more about the car. Also you get to see/hear what people like and don't like about their mods.

Think the pulley took about 1 1/2 for me and my buddy. The CAI vs. PopCharger debate how been going on since produce for the 350Z. Both are great and give the same gains. I like the PopCharger cause it less expensive and easier access to clean and service. The Nismo CAI is just an AEM CAI in black.

I don't like ECU flashes cause its a guess of what your car is doing. If you are serious about getting your car tune I suggest the TurboXS UTEC. Also since you are new to modding and tuning I suggest doing research for a good UTEC tuner in your area.
