We had this discussion in the Nismo forum and the prevailing wisdom was that the Nismo tune is not different.

Does anybody know for certain (not conjecture) that the Nismo does, in fact, have a distinct tune?

As for the weight, I can weigh my Nismo exhaust; it's sitting in my spare bedroom. It was substantially heavier than the FI that I installed; that much is for certain.

Regardless of the exact number, the factory Nismo exhaust is not +18hp but instead somewhere probably closer to a max of +10hp.

In talking with Visconti about the ECUtek software when he showed it to me there were definitely tables that have differences between the Nismo and non-Nismo models. Exactly what these differences were I have no idea since ECUtek had yet to decipher what they actually meant. Fact no, reliable yes.

OP, if you need ideas for mods for your Nismo just look at my signature.
