I agree with you , but i will prefer the HFC rout. so you have answered my questions as far as the worthiness of headers with my set-up.

Thank YOU
You can buy the Z1 headers and use 350z HFCs.

but that wouldn't be cost beneficial. coz the gains are probably half of what the LTH would do for the same amount of money if not less.

Seems like if I will be going HFC its pointless to do Headers. Specially since I have the CBE and the G3.

The problem with na cars is that we can never create new power (like most turbos), we are only better managing our system, to revive the lost power. That being said we can probably get most of the lost power back with few bolt ons and after that things will start not making sense!! gain to money ratio speaking.

Not true at all. It seems like the Z1 headers/350 HFC combo are in the same ballpark as LTHs for power, and the price is comparable.

To be fair, you're debating parts that will all add within 5whp of each other. Don't stress too much about it.
