What to get next

nacoluis · 03-08-2017, 08:52 PM

Ok guys,

I need your help, currently I have Stillen CBE, AAM HFC, Injen CAI. Now I live in Canada so this is why I went with HFC over Test pipes and LTH, and from what I hear Shorties aren't that great (short headers). Also i have heard that the Motordyne M370 is a hit or a miss (some people saying they lose 10whp). That being said I will be getting a tune once my car is out of storage, but I would like to do 1 more upgrade to my 370Z.

What would you guys recommend to get?

*Note*
I live in Canada and Emissions test is needed.

Depends where in Canada you live, there is no emissions testing in AB. Careful with the generalizations.

Where do you live and what kind of driving? The next thing I'd do from seeing your list is gears and LSD. It I don't concern myself as much with the very top end. There aren't exactly a lot of occasions to bury the speedometer. But it depends on you not me.

Well it is pretty pricey but so is everything... I am thinking of the m370 or z1 manifold but both have a hit or miss review and the z1 has a good price to it where as m370 is pricey for just plastic :S

I think you've reached the point of diminishing returns for NA.

Any interest in wheels/aero/stereo/radar detector/laser jammers?

If you want to go faster - NOS/turbo/SC?

Chase has a good suggestion with gears/LSD.

What's the budget?

Do you have an oil cooler? Is that even an issue in CA?

That is the point he is at. He's done the easy gains and there aren't many steps between there and forced induction. Gears are really the only cost effective option that came to mind. It's one I was considering before I said screw it and went with the supercharger.

budget is $2000 with a tune at the moment i do plan on supercharging my Z with either stillen or GTM next year or following year but i would like to get something for the meantime, now this budget does include a oil cooler weather it is z1 or stillen or mishimoto im not sure yet but i am always hitting 110 - 115 degrees Celsius so about 230 - 240 F

With that kind of budget and plans of SC in the future, I'd go with a clutch/flywheel upgrade.
