Just did dyno with Stillen Intake and Nismo Exhaust
The Nismo exhaust is still restrictive compared to the likes of FI and other straight thru CBE. A straight thru CBE will net you 20 whp but will be louder.

True, but my point was that my numbers showed more of an increase than just the FI exhaust alone.

well since you didnt do a before dyno you really have no idea. All cars are different and some come with more or less power so you have no idea what you were at. Im sure you did get some good gains with both mods but you would have probably got another 10 hp/tq from an aftermarket CBE and your CAI. But it would be louder too so thats a factor for some. For the OP if you are going to do LTH then you are obviously looking for the most gains possible, so I would do FI LTH, CBE and G3s for the max power combo IMO and you will need the tune.
