I'm not complaining about gas..... I have never owned a car that didn't take premium. And being from the bay area where has is probably higher then most. I was merely questioning whether there is a difference in mpg regardless or the car having a stock exhaust, resonated, or nonresonated

The mpg only goes down because you want to get into the throttle more.

The fuel mapping doesn't change just for an exhaust mod or not enough to really change anything enough to notice

If that's the case, nonresonated with cf mufflers will be on my wish list

I average 18.9 mpg (what the car says. Never reset it just for a work commute itself) and my daily commute is 25-30 miles no highways. Also I'm not easy on the throttle either lol

Unless you're a 20 year old dying for attention get the HKS Hi-Power catback. That's the exhaust the Z should come with stock.

Opinions differ, but I've had BOTH HKS and FI and prefer HKS, so take that for what it's worth.

The HKS, in contrast, uses Helmholtz resonators to remove all sound at the frequency that resonates in the 370Z cabin, for a drone-free experience. When you're idling along it sounds little louder than stock, but put your foot halfway or more into it and it wakes up with an aggressive growl that still is never annoyingly loud. It's what a sports car should sound like, IMO. It's more expensive but oh so worth it.

The Motordyne M370 is an intake manifold. I drive a 15' Nismo now but I had the Motordyne M370, FI RHFC , Motordyne XYZ on my 12' G37 coupe and the M370 did make a slight difference in the sound. Prior to that I had several different combinations leading up to it and they were each a bit different.

Convenience mostly. 51 mile commute to work. The annoying part is that I can easily get 27-29MPG from the Z, except traffic gets in the way and slows me down and kills the mileage. I'm getting better at slow acceleration, but really I just want to be able to cruise at a steady 80MPH the whole time and I'll return 27MPG.

Actually most places are trying to liquidate the hks because it doesn't sell. Found a few for 1100-1300. Only Z1 is charging 2k for it
