I just read page 1, but from what I have seen, either do a CBE, headers/HFC's, or intake, and you have gotten 95% of the performance that is available without more extensive modding.

The highest hp NA 370Z I have seen on here was @330whp with an impeccable tune that is 93* compatible only. Almost ALL the 370Z's I have seen with just one of these mods is around 300whp on a stock tune. Throw a 93* tune on it and it would be 305whp or so. So for another 10whp...you do another $2500 worth of work. I'm sorry, but coming from the LSX world, that's just a joke unless you are doing it for the sound or to stay within some sort of "class" in a competitive environment or just because you want to out of some internal reasoning of yours (Hey, everyone has their "thing").

I just feel that if you are doing all that, you might have picked the wrong car is all.

Feel free to flame away, but my planned mods are Berk CBE, Tint, Radar detector, and I'm toying with the idea of a full wrap.
