2006 350z NA Build
Before I even get started i have done a lot of reading and i have searched for the answer to my question.
i am doing a rebuild on my motor since I had the oil consumption problem.
and i decided to go NA because it is more reliable.
here is my parts list
ARP Head Bolts
Eagle Rods
ACL main bearing
ACL rod bearing
Cometic Head Gasket
CP pistons 11:1
DC headers
test pipes
HKS exhaust
plenum spacer
short ram intake
(due to a last minute need for summer school can't afford cams rite now)
my question is do i need a tune?
and approx how much HP would i gain from this set up ?

As long as you're keeping the stock injectors it should run fine. Also, I would seriously consider waiting until you can afford the cams to do it, they're already going to be out and will really help. Guarantee that you'll wish you had and end up putting them in later

Yes you need a tune... that's where your gonna pick up power anyway
Junk those DC headers get long tubes or the Z1 momentum headers
Leave your 06 airbox on its the best intake for the car, just put a k/n panel in it
If your not getting cams for n/a build
that's a big part of a n/a build
My guess would be around 300whp
With all this aside screw n/a builds go get a bp kit, run haltech and get a good tuner to tune it. Your gonna get bored with n/a power of a vq35

. I have to have HFC so long tubes are out of the question. and i've never heard that about the intake. and honestly i don't want a turbo or SC it's too much maintenance for me.

I have P&P built heads with +1mm Manley valves JWT S7 cams and springs that most likely will be coming off my stroker that spun it's bearings (assuming the builder refuses to fix it) I also have an mrev2 & spacer.
