Default Just bought a 2006 350z

hey guys i just bought my car about 4 days ago . It has 18000 on the motor and 3000 on the, clutch , engine, and the tranyy. i bought it with a light jwt flywheel clutch combo . people tell me thats why it sounds like im draging a shovel behind my car can any1 tell me if thats normal, it goes away after 2000 rpms . also im buying the aps plenum from the guy who sold me the car for 350 $ , its used. is that a good deal? . I also just bought a popcharger. i was just wondering what else should i add on before i get it tuned on a dyno .

very nice color is that custom paint?

I would just get a kinetix v+ plenum for 200 used it does the job great i had one.. save the money.. Clutch and flywheel chatter is normal for heavy duty clutches and lightweight flywheel so get useto it.. Your going to need a reflash or an ecu because i don't believe stock ecus can be tuned .. enjoy your Z
