I wouldn't pay more than $350 for it, and IMO they are cheap because it's "stock" and used. Obviously an improvement over the stock one on the sport, and it was kind of a "can't hurt" kind of deal for me. I lucked out and had a buddy do the install for $40, which obviously is a nice bump.

Intake or Nismo exhaust first?

Honestly, the nismo exhaust, from what i've read, is only 7hp over stock...

So for $350, i think you are better off buying a used exhaust that someone is selling on the forum! I mean, aftermarket exhausts are supposed to produce higher numbers than the nismo right? I saw some that gave the car 20+hp from a full catback.

I just think the sound of the stock nismo exhaust is to quiet. It needs more umph...
