my LTHs were around $350ish and install was around $450 - cut out the cost of the testpipes...

I say Megan LTH and a tune to take full advantage of them. Sell ur test pipes to help out with cost of headers. A few guys posting in this thread know NOTHING when it comes to bolt on power. And a few should just worry about their own sh1tty car that doesnt make ANY power

well if the piping is slightly larger then stock headers and it eliminates the cats and hes gonna tune it i dont c how it wouldnt b a gain. CIN Motorsports just dynoed a STOCK z eith MR LTHs and X02 exhaust it had gains right over 15-18hp. Thats untuned and he was running slightly lean.

well i know your talking about me since you seem to have something against me, must be envy , take your own advice and GTFO! on your way out make sure you dont hit a deer F* D*$$, i think your reality show is starting so why dont you get your bon bons, ky and have fun with your hand

you should read the thread before you give some lame advice, op clearly states he has little money, ITS OBVIOUS that he will benefit more from a TUNE than headers,

2003 AT 350z
HKS Exhaust
Megan Racing Test Pipes
JWT pop charger
MD Plenum Spacer

I have read on the 03s the MD manifold is a waste of money. Anything else I should consider? I don't track or anything just like having fun.

Thanks guys for any input,
Sean
