From what I am reading the m370 and the ART pipes seem good. Does anyone know how they are together in terms of gains? I know the first mod usually gives the most gains and everything diminishes after that. Also, would these interfere in any way if I wanted to do the Fast Intentions Exhaust in the future or maybe the Stillen g3 intakes?

As long as the ART pipes will bolt up to the stock exhaust (they do), then they should work with ANY exhaust that will bolt up to the stock cats etc. You'll be fine.

If you add G3's (or any other intake for that matter), you really will need a tune since you're a/f ration will be out of wack.

Motordyne is also coming out with a new exhaust for the 370z. Tony (who is oddly enough the F.I. guy's name as well) is a really good guy... he's busy with his exhaust, but I called him on a Sunday or all times and he was there. I think they have specials on the first of the month with free shipping.

The F.I. long tube headers (LTH's) are a very good mod, but in the area you live in, sometimes it's best to just have either a HFC or test pipe and that way it can be switched out and tested. A LTH set wouldn't be NEARLY as easy.

Keep in mind with any TP or HFC though that many shops won't take off stock cats, as they can be fined large amounts of money for that. If you have any mechanical knowledge I would suggest doing it yourself, but then again, there should be someone here that's from your area that can suggest someone to do the job. It's not a fun job... but once you do it once and with the correct tools it's not difficult at all.

Well there you have it man, go with it.

The F.I. exhaust is the one i'm looking at, but I am waiting for Motordyne's exhaust which I believe will up the torque on the car more than the other exhausts. No harm in waiting anyway IMO.

I just finished breaking the engine in but have been too busy with work to really give her a proper drive so I want to see how it is stock first and get a feel for if I really want to do the mods. Surprisingly enough, my tuner friend who's currently thinking of getting an f-1 car is the one suggesting I do that before jumping onto mods. I like the FI exhaust in the vids I've seen, though. Going to try to make it out to the socal meet sometime to hear it in person though. The ART pipes seem like a great choice though for a total undercover mod with some nice usable power gains.

Thanks!
