intakes like the stillen are expensive, but gotta remember there are 2 individual systems. just one of the two is similiar priced to what you will pay for a comparable single intake for a single throttle vehicle.

to even get 10hp from an intake on a car like this is GREAT RESULTS.... so if you see people saying 16 or 20... well if you even get half that you are in great shape.

The HP per dollar ratio sucks when modifying a car such as this, thats for sure. But its either swallow it or sell the car.

No amount of NA mods is going to put the car into another league. You will inch away from a stock 370z, but its not going to make the 370z beat cars that it couldnt before, assuming same driver skill level and not taking into account the massive 1/4 times changes you will see based on the 60' time which would be improved with the right tires and alignment etc... im just referencing strictly how hard the car pulls.

you probably already know all this, but im just reminding you so you dont forget that in the end you will be spending a few grand to get 20-30hp.
