The real gains have already been made by swapping out from the stock exhaust. The straight through design of any good forced induction exhaust doesn't really create that much of a restriction, unlike the stock exhaust. It might pick up a couple more ponies but nothing that would be looked at as inflated numbers by just removing the rear cans.

Inflated numbers are when you remove a known to be restrictive air filter entirely like some places have done and then post up numbers saying your kit makes 80whp more than the competition. I don't operate that way.

I felt like this needed to be seen again. Also does the person who has this kit currently use this forum? I would like to know what are the current mods they have with this kit.

Yes. He goes by 1DIRTYZ. He will gladly answer any questions you have for him.

Tony, tune in here.

He wanted a safe tune so we used knock detection and have all sensors turned on. I hear some guys like to turn those off. His car is very safe to street and track as that is his intended use. The car left the Dyno with the numbers posted. We have a filter on there so no need to worry about ingesting sand, dirt and road debris, which will occure. He can drive this assured his engine is going to last.

I have never sent a single kit out with anything except a filter. I actually refuse to sell my kits without one. I can't honestly recommend that and won't throw common sense out the window in return for numbers. Hell, I won't even Dyno without one because I don't see the point.

EndlessZ can attest to this as he watched this Dyno and drive off with the numbers posted. He works at the shop where we dynoed.

Hey Everyone!

I will be keeping the tune from the last Dyno run we have. We drove home with the tune right after our dyno runs. My intent is to tune in the spring with e85 as well. We were planning on tuning on E85 but as Aaron has said, winter in MN does not help at all.The car will be on the track this summer (auto X and road course) with both tunes.

If you have any other questions feel free to ask!

This is my build and thanks for following as i'm excited to drive it in the spring. The following below are my current mods:

CJM S1. E Return Fuel System
Walbro 485 fuel pump
Flex Fuel Sensor
Fast Intentions GUTTED RHFC
Ark full cat back exhaust
Z1 370Z / G37 Clutch & Flywheel Combo
Z Speed Heavy Duty CSC Kit

Thanks for chiming in I know a lot of members here appreciate this information. My mod list will be a little bit more extensive than what you currently have so I am curious if that will play a role in the numbers with this new kit.
