Bolt on gain (Can you feel?)

lol at some of these crazy responses... Chances are you won't notice anything other than the sound difference. The first bolt-on, depending on what you choose, should max out at

lol at some of these crazy responses...

Chances are you won't notice anything other than the sound difference. The first bolt-on, depending on what you choose, should max out at a performance increase of about 10-15 hp. That's a 5% overall hp increase at best. Unless you have a ton of seat time, your rear end is not capable of detecting that minimal of a power gain above the stock 300 hp.

If you want a noticeable change, get a tune with throttle response correction. It is night and day compared to the stock throttle response.

In a word, no.

//close thread.

Especially since you’re coming from a turbo car where basic bolt ons, stage 1 tunes etc yield very large gains.

It’s an na v6 that already breaths well. You need to decide upfront na or fi, and then go in that direction. The only benefit to staying na is the perceived “purity” of the cars dna, ie it came that way from Nissan, and the sound. I’ll always like the sound of a nasty na motor over a turbo any day.

If your planning hpde track days etc, it’ll be ALOT cheaper to stay na.
