Best bangs for the buck are:

1. K&N panel filters plus smoother intake tubes (cobb or HPS).

2. ebay test pipes (get ones with extra long defoulers to minimize chance of CEL; can also cram steel wool in bung to filter exhaust gasses further)

3. A better flowing Y-pipe, or pick up a used Nismo cat back exhaust (OEM or or S-tune version).

4. Osirus uprev tune to bring it all together.

That will bring to around or just over 300 whp on a dynojet (typically begining around 273 +/-5 ), and should cost you under or around $1500 - 2000 in total.

Happy modding

Not trying to hi-jack but the ARK website has vids of their CBE on a dyno producing 302 whp alone. There's no baseline run, but most 370's seem to be dyno-ing around 279 stock on dynojets (of course conditions and corrective factors play a role). They're working on getting before and after's, as 23 whp from an exhaust seems like a lot.
