Default Mid A newb

Sup Mid A! Been a Z owner for a little over a month now. Been spending my time reading up all about our cars and whatnot.. and finding parts lol. Just recently found out there was a regional section...

https://my350z.com/forum/new-owners/...orum-n00b.html

hope to meet some of yall at the cp meet this weekend.

whoever has knowledge of shops that work really well with Z's in the DMV area, let me know
also on help with installs, i'm fairly new at the mechanical game so any and all help with installing parts as far as know-how and tools, etc is greatly appreciated. (some of the write-ups aren't as detailed as I hoped them to be... and i'm more of a hands-on learner)

I work neither for the gov't or military... I am a student as well as a lab technician if that's what you're asking, lol

no F/I for me yet... going all N/A til I can afford a good project car, since the Z is gonna be DD.

LOVE VOLK! but trying to keep that "stock" look to get less attention, so i'm looking for Nismo wheels.

i'm Asian / Pacific Islander myself so i love EVERY VARIETY OF ASIAN FOOD AND WOMEN!!!!

So, I've done some searching around, but couldn't really find a straight forward answer from my results.
So here's my question:
Which would yield a better gain, a JIC Y-Pipe or a Nismo Y-Pipe? My search results only came back with OPINIONS about SOUND... not Dyno-proven gains.

Is there a difference between the two? I'm thinking of going for an all Nismo set up, from the headers back with Berk HFCs... anyone else run this set up?

If no one in the Mid A has had this set up or any opinions / facts / input on this, I might just create a new thread to the general public LOL... just asking tho.
Don't shoot me

Any and all help appreciated.

Thanks.
