You had mentioned that it worries you having to add 350Z HFC's however many have done it. Check out the massively long thread on it.

I think it's worse to spend money on crappy headers that may be less in price but provide very little performance gains then spending your money on headers that may be a little more expensive but at least will make a difference on your car and would totally be worth the installation costs as well. I would try telling that to your mom.

Take your time and do it right. Don't throw your money away which would be buying the crappy headers.

Okay thanks, but if I can't do ppe LTH I'll look into the z1 headers with 350z HFCs? Right? And I just give them a call and they will help me out with what I want to do? Or how do I go about that?

Yep! Go to the Z1 Motorsports website and you can see more about them there. Also check out the thread on here about the Z1 headers. You can call them up and ask any additional questions you may have. Also as someone had mentioned that if you wanted the Berk HFC's you could get the Z1 headers and the 350Z Berk HFC's.

The Z1 headers cost is $895 and from Berks website their HFC's are $499. However the Z1 cats are $358.

Guys, (or the ones who have been here a while)

Let's just back away...

I have the Z1 headers/Z1 cat deletes. Thats the only setup id run with. (Without doing LTH)

:iagree: Those are the only shorty headers that make any power. Do those and a set of DE HFCs and be done with it.

Pulleys aren't illegal either. And go with the Stillen pulley, 20% under driven. That's what I got and I like it a lot

Okay I'll explain. I graduate in late May, I wanted to have all my performance parts ready to go before then, because I'm going to drive 8 hours to texas and have my car tuned at JOTECH, so then I will be done with my performance, another issue is I believe the mechanic I want to install my headers, I'm not sure if he will because he won't do anything illegal, (such as removing cats). And if he doesn't, odds are I'm going to pay 560 for headers and 560 for cats or something, (prices aren't the same), and around 360-480$ for install. (60$ per hour),,,(6-8hours)

And you don't need a tune for it either. If I were the OP I'd do an intake, HFCs, a pulley and a tune. Maybe Z1 or motordynes manifold.
