I just saw what you wrote above. I will comment shortly. If not tonight than tomorrow...

Thanks, Tony

Anyway if you guys can bear with me, there seems to be some holes in this thread... or maybe it's my brain :tiphat: So I want to recap/ summarize.
It seems you can get similar numbers with the OEM header-manifolds, what ever they are considered and no cat's these headers off a much broader power band right?
On the same token it seems with the headers, if I read all of this correctly, a new intake doesn't add a whole lot of power right? I didn't see anyone say they changed their intakes after they put on the headers, looks like everyone is either still using the OEM intake or they already had an aftermarket. Do you guys still think it would be worth swapping, You would still get better throttle response, etc right? It seems the Stillen G3 causes the car to run a little lean with these headers? Otherwise the Injen intake seems to perform about the same right, and I suspect would help with the air/ fuel ratio? Or given the minimal gains is it not really even worth getting an intake like that, would I be better off with a more OEM/ shorter style (not sure of a specific one right now?) if it did not come at the expense of performance the lower cost would certainly be nice but more importantly they are much easier to install and service right, besides being better protected from water and other road debris? I don't even like the idea of having to pull my bumper off once just to install them, every time to change filters just seems crazy.

Additionally, can somebody (Tony?) send me the install instructions for these headers and I assume there are some for the exhaust as well?
Ok~. first of all it was quite hard to understand what you were getting at but from my brief summary questions really boil down to,
Quote:
1. Is tune necessary with LHT+CAI?
From what i gather, tune is necessary for Stillen CAI + full exhaust mod. People reported running quite lean with full exhaust mod + Stillen CAI. I'm not too sure about Injen though. But generally, in order to get the most out of your system, you'd need a tune.
Quote:
2. Is CAI worth the money with exhaust upgrades?
IMO, no. 370z comes with CAI..well it's functionally Cold air intake that has filter inside the engine bay. With after-market CAI, you'll be most likely achieving minimal gains with full exhaust mod at the top range of the RPM.
It really depends on how much is that extra hp worth to you.
Quote:
3. Should I just get SRI?
No, just keep the stock one. Stock one is efficient until the top range of RPM.

sinceday1 12-04-2010 09:48 PM
BTW, I need that S/C update with LTH before i sink my teeth into this beauty!

crash1369 12-04-2010 11:23 PM
Thanks guys, Tony looking forward to your response.

I am mainly wondering if I should still expect the same improvements in throttle response and stuff you would see with a CAI and no exhaust modifications? It seems the headers free up just about all your pent up horse power, but horse power alone isn't the only factor.

I won't be doing anything to my car during the winter so I have until summer to research these things so I am trying to figure out where all my money is gonna end up :rofl2: :facepalm: :ughdance:

Finally got my car tuned this week and thought I would post what I found.
I took the car to UpRev and did a few pulls with just the LTH and Fast Intentions TDX non-resonated. It produced 301hp/246tq and the air/fuel ratio was perfect no need for a tune. Jared (the tuner) was impressed with the computers ability to adjust for the higher exhaust flow. Then we put on the Stillen G3 and did a few pulls. It produced 310hp/251tq before the tune but, the air/fuel was way out. Then he tuned it and it still produced 310hp/252tq but corrected the air/fuel ratio. So basically I picked up 9hp with the Stillen G3 ($550) and a tune ($450). Unless your willing to pay about $1000 for 10hp its not worth it.

G37Sam 12-05-2010 05:21 PM
Did your tuner not touch your ignition timing tables?

How'd the overall power change? Do you have overlaid graphs?

If this was on a dynojet and you have access to the drf's, PM me. I can make whatever graphs you want.

pg6speed 12-05-2010 05:39 PM
Yea UpRev uses a Dynojet. Their printer was not working (go figure) so they're supposed to email me the data. When they do I'll post them with some video. He did adjust the timing alittle as for the power I only picked up 9hp from when I drove in there so I don't really feel a big difference but, it does seem to run a bit smoother and the tone of the exhaust has changed a bit.

crash1369 12-05-2010 06:26 PM
Can you feel a difference in throttle response, etc, since you added the intake? Does it rev up quicker or anything, or does it feel basically the same as it did with just the headers?

I am thinking of getting rid of the LTH, I got pulled over by a cop and have a week to put the stock cats back on -_-.

I wonder how much people would give for my LTH.

I guess I could buy HFC instead, how much do I love in terms of POWEEEEEEEER and noise.

Daishi 12-22-2010 10:51 PM
How are people getting pulled over with these. Don't romp on it until you know the coast is clear. And if a cop is behind you baby thr car and they won't smell or notice a thing..

I was standing still, they right behind me and probably had their AC on and the smell got in and then they pulled me over.

I wanted to buy that 240 he had >_>

you have pm! i am interested in the headers and just have some questions

thank you

If I ordered this week, what's the build time on a set of coated headers?

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. This week has been crazy! If ordered NOW or SOON they will ship within 4-8 weeks!

Call me as soon as you are ready to at least leave a deposit...

Thanks, Tony

vipor 01-14-2011 06:44 PM
Just my :twocents: here, but if anyone needs to get a hold of Tony/FI then definitely call the number listed in his sig. He may not check the forums for periods of time, but I know from my personal experience that he will at the very lease return your calls. I had some questions for him on the day I was doing my install (weekend) and he got back to me pretty quickly.

BTW, I've had mine for about 6 months and I still love 'em

Great to hear from you as well as my headers doing the same. The test of time speaks volume for any product...

Thanks, Tony

i second vipors motion to call tony if you really need something right away,

i have ordered the cbe and long tube headers and on both times i have called he promptly answered and took the time to explaind and review his products, he ensures he is not upselling a product but making sure you get what you are looking to accomplish out of your Z,

and perhaps one of the biggest differences is that you get to speak with both the owner/manufacturer/and user when you call tony, you are not dealing with representatives who are just there to type a transaction but with TONY!

anywho, i havent even gotten my exhaust or headers and im already impressed, im certain i will be that much more of a F.I fanboi as soon as i get them installed.:driving:

NewYorkJon34 01-14-2011 09:23 PM
I want to buy the headers now, I'm ready. I'll have to check out your payment plans first tho.

Send me a check and we go from there.

I did not buy the LTH , but remember talking directly to Tony when he first advertised them, got to admit, seemed a stand up guy and answered all my questions.

Dont deal with the Monkey when you can talk directly to the Organ grinder.

NYBladeZ 01-19-2011 05:28 PM
I've had these headers for a few months and love them. However, recently its come into question on whether the LTH's plus a straight pipe 2.5" exhaust is to free flowing and takes away some torque. Not giving out names but a member on here made close to the same numbers as I did but he had a fatter torque curve. However, he had a manufactured CBE whereas I had homemade straight 2.5" plumbing. He also had intakes and pulleys, I have neither. The numbers weren't alarmingly different but just wondering what you guys think about it being to much flow.
