Just did dyno with Stillen Intake and Nismo Exhaust

craniac24 · 04-10-2010, 06:41 PM

So I got my Stillen intake and Nismo Exhaust put on today, and I'm really thrilled with the overall result. The intake sounds amazing at WOT and I think the exhaust is close to the perfect sound for my taste. Admittedly, I wouldn't have minded it being a LITTLE bit louder. The Berk is the only other one that I considered because I like the stock look, but I'm pretty sure it would have been just a little too loud for me.

Anyway...I am a little upset that we forgot to get a baseline run, but from what I've found on here, the highest stock run I've seen on a Dynojet was 284hp/241tq. This was the baseline run that FI did when testing it's exhaust. I pulled 4 times and my WORST run was 313hp/258tq. So...conservatively speaking, it looks like I made an additional 29hp and 17tq.

The butt dyno confirms. The tires easily break loose now shifting into 3rd gear, where I wasn't able to do that before.

Oh...and it should be said that my exhaust was straight off the back of a Nismo Z (H-Pipe), which is different from the S-Tune (Y-Pipe). I'm pretty sure I got a few more horses out of it compared to what I would have gotten with the S-Tune version.

I'm pretty happy...what do you guys think?

Great results. The numbers sound unusually high but as long as you feel a difference then who cares.

Yep.

Better she find it annoying, than you finding it tame.

I realize that we all pretty much know what the Stillen Intake and the Nismo Exhaust look like, but you asked for pics...so here you go.
