Nismo FI CBE swap?

I'm not sure getting a tune with only having done a CBE would be worth it. If you are going to get a tune wait until you have done a few other mods like intakes and HFC. With just CBE a tune probably won't yeild much; that is unless your car from the factory for whatever reason came with a bad tune.

Prior to my NISMO I had a 09 sport touring. I ran the same FI CBE on that car as well. No tune. You'll find back when the Z first came out that most people that did a tune on a stock Z or a Z with only one mod gained very little if anything at all.

In the end you'll be swapping exhausts and only gaining 7-10hp. The tune might get you another 5 if that.
