^^ Thanks Rob ... I really look forward to this.

Not sure if I'll install anything at this event. But I sure will lend a hand to anyone who needs it. I've been through installing test pipes and plenums so it should go quickly.

I think I need to install bigger *****.. That way I'll have enough to order exhaust and intake mods. Anybody help? j/k

F-ing AJ planted the seed.. now every time I get on the gas in my Z it sounds so weak and unoriginal. I've considered the exhaust a 'luxury' mod, however I've been convincing myself that I would really enjoy the new sound, I can lose weight with a single exhaust, and add a few HP in the process... Damn expensive though (for what I'm looking at )

yo man don't forget exhaust is also performance increase besides the weight savings Just order it and we'll put it on! Simple as that.

You probably got jealous of how mine sounded huh Which one you looking at? That motordyne xyz thingy apparently is pretty cool.

Since you store your Z in the winter, the exhaust should be a breeze to take off. I just put the Greddy system on this week and the toughest part was relocating the EVAP canister. A single system should be a piece of cake.

However, if you show up with headers, I'll be happy to watch you tackle that monster. My big paws don't fit in that part of the engine bay very well.

Default strupp headers

Hey there is anyone looking to buy a set of 1500 miles used Strupp headers. Am selling mine for $400.

Up for sale are used strupp headers had them on my car for abt 1500 miles or so. Am asking $400. Its a steal. Pls read description below. Thank you.

350Z/G35 Coupe 3-1 Stainless Steel Headers utilizing T-304 #1 grade stainless steel tubing, polished to a bright luster. 1 5/8” mandrel bent tubing x .065 wall thickness, 3/8” thick stainless steel flanges, and TIG welded construction for superior durability. The Strup headers are made to last.

Providing on average 8-15 horsepower gains and 15+ midrange torque gains, this is the best header we've seen for the 350Z and G35!

Headers, now thats something that will be really tough
I don't have an engine hoist to rock the motor, so I don't know if we can do those at my place. I am more then willing to try but I can't have a Z/G stuck in my driveway...

Brain, sorry to hear you can't make it though Spring Break will be a blast I hope!!

Steve, come on man thats what I do....

Phreak-that is the toughest part on that exhaust, I had that on mt 06, and 08 sounds amazing though. My favorite sound on a Z personally.

I didn't know you were getting them that soon? I'm definitely going to have to see how it rides on those. By the way, my clutch decided it had enough on the Evo the other night(haha, one too many launch control uses on a stock clutch I guess), so I should have a fancy new clutch in a week or so.
