Talking Nismo exaust + CAI = :)

I am very happy to inform you all that I have had the two above mods added to the vehicle yesterday. All I have to say is wow. The sound of the vehicle is 100x better. I don't have access to a dyno jet so I won't even bother to comment on HP numbers and such. But i can say that it feels stronger in the higher rpms. Also I couldn't get above 154 mph stock... but this morning i hit 159 mph, which is the designated speed for fuel cutoff. it felt like she had some room to go still.

oh well.

a big thumbs up for nismo!

oh i also installed the nismo license plate cover... i know for a fact that i got 7 whp out of that mod! :P

I have the nismo exhaust and it sounds deeper than stock, but not excessively loud. It has a real sweet sound and the build quality is great, I'm happy with my purchase. I can imagine the sound is only better with the CAI also.

Who cares if it isnt true dual? Personally I would rather have a y-pipe into a single going to a single muffler, especially for turbo...

That's rad. I downloaded a sound clip of the nismo exhaust on one of our fellow members cars and it was sooo nice. I ordered my Nismo intake from the dealer on monday so hopefully I should be getting it by friday or early next week. I haven't heard that many great things about the cai but I figure that it has got to be as good as most of the others, or close. I'm not looking forward to the install though

the diff in horse power that stillen or borla has over my nismo exaust is barely noticeable. What is 2-3 hp more?

if you happened to read what I stated in the beginning, I didn't say that I had a HUGE increase in power. Nor did i bother comparing it to the other exausts. I don't have dyno numbers and I don't need them. The exaust sounds great! I have noticed extra pickup top end and I haven't lost any torque. All in all I am happy with this purchase. Sorry that you don't agree with me. But as someone stated above:

"because he isn't you?"


exactly.
