Headers won’t get you much. For the hassle they are to install and the cost for a quality set, most people skip this on a street car.

Coilovers and other supsension mods can make your Z a lot more fun to drive.
Thank you guys. Mainly just looking for a different sound from the exhaust and of course I’d appreciate any little bump in power that comes with that. Thoughts on HFC versus resonated test pipes in terms of sound and power gains?

Once I settle on one, I’m definitely turning to intake and tune then suspension.
