Question Help me with my build please!

I was wondering if you guys could give me some feedback on the setup I'd like! All your advice- even against these mods- is much appreciated, I admire many of your setups and trust your expertise.

I'll start with what I have:

A Stillen true dual exhaust, a Stillen ram air intake, a Nismo flywheel, a grounding kit I made, and a catch-can I made A neat article on them

This is what I want:

I finally have made enough to get a plenum spacer and tune the car. I know I want the Motordyne 5/16"

Unfortunately, I'm still confused after all of my research on the best way to tackle the ECU. Are my modifications far enough outside those 'pre-mapped' parameters piggybacks use to guarantee effectiveness? (I have no intention of going FI.) If you guys could tell me the best way to optimize my Z I could sleep at night hahaha

Thanks again,

Matt

You should have posted this up in the Intake/Exhaust forum..

This area is for NA Builds.. What you are doing is simply adding basic bolt-on's...

My
-Exhaust is decent
-Forget the Intake and stick with the Revup airbox and a K&N filter (save$ for the tune)
-Why nismo flywheel? Why not get something lighter.. ClutchMasters has a 10.5lb fw
-Get tuned by Uprev's -Osiris

you should ask a mod to move this as mentioned, but here goes

1. set a budget
2. find a good local tuner, and see what they suggest as far as the ecu. Who you use is arguably more important than what you use.

As far as your other mods, they will work fine

Thanks, I re-posted in the ECU area of the site. I chose the Nismo Flywheel because it seemed a good compromise between a coffee grinder and a performance enhancer haha
