I come from FI, so intakes actually made a bit of a difference. As some have said, the stock design isn't horrible so I don't expect much more than noise from them. I think I'm leaning towards JWT for the intakes, but not going to make decisions until I see what happens with Denny's test of the Stillen.

So far, the most sensible exhaust I've seen on here has been the GTM one. The design looks decent, I didn't find anything that made me question its performance. Maybe they could have tapered some of the muffler/pipe joints, but otherwise it looks like a solid design. The rest are beautiful, but give me a break with the prices. I don't want a show car, I want an efficient, well designed exhaust.

I will definitely do a thorough write up of the KW's. I think I'm getting lucky because a friend of a friend is coming to FLA. Apparently this guy specializes in KW racing setups..corner balanced and everything, so Im going to have him setup the car.
Cool, keep us updated.

I like he JTWs so far but the Stillens claims are outrageous. Glad Denny is calling BS. We will see if they really deliver to their claims. I am new to tuning, but 18hp seems unrealistic.

Will look at the GTM. I have been watching the Berk, seems legit.

Are you doing anything for the sway bar as part of your suspension tune?

Again, your Z looks great and I appreciate someone that know what they are talking about. I was able to get my Jeep to perform well above stock from the help of a great forum. So it is awesome to have the same for the Z.
