Maybe you should have purchased a more affordable vehicle.

With where you live and winter approaching you might want to consider some getting snow shoes for the Z before all the go-fast parts. There's not much purpose in strapping a bunch of stuff to something you can't drive.

just because it says HKS or GReddy, or even NISMO doesn't mean its real, which is actually what ebay is known for.... Do your research, there is real stuff on ebay, but you have to do your research. Good luck with it. I'm gonna e-bay the bimmer if i buy it this weekend.

just because it's ebay doesn't mean it's fake, or bad, I have bought and sold more parts on ebay than anyone should, I've had good luck with the great majority of my transactions, you just have to read the listings carefully, know what you are looking at, research the seller, do nto do business with overseas sellers, and if something looks too good to be true it probably is, also paypal is always the preferred method of payment as they offer extra protection, plus you don't give up a hittable account number

JWT has the new popchargers for the dual TB. as for me, i went with AEM. it sounds mean, and i still dont even have an exhaust.

when i open up, it sounds really mean! but when im just cruising, its quiet.

which makes me wonder if i really want to buy an exhaust. i dont want it to be too loud like the 4bangers here in vegas. youd hear it like its going 100mph and you look at it and its only going 25mph....freaking annoying!

Its not like that. Mines loud and stays pretty quiet when i'm driving normal. Keep the revs low and you'll be ok, plus these cars don't sound like they are going fast unless they are going fast, we have torque and HP the ricers have 0 torque and 5 HP.... The only loud "4 bangers" that belong to my friends are fast and don't sound riced.

rmezz13, thats what im trying to say. the Z has enough power, and im not into racing much (anymore).

it has the growl i want and its still stock. what im aiming at with my car is the sleeper look. i know it will add power but 7hp isnt much difference. true that its gains varies throughout the powerband, but im already pulling 281hp at the wheels last dyno i had. its more than enough to shut out the cars here in vegas.

now, i know its not enough for guys that have deep pockets that runs z06 and supraTT, but thats ok since theyre my friends and they have deeper pockets than me. that and im not into racing anymore since when i had my integra, i had my fair share of tickets (speeding, reckless endangerement and C and I, and what not)

if your looking for any gains from exhaust, your going to want to do headers, HFC or test pipes and all. You don't really get anything but noise from cat back systems, at least not a huge difference maker. Really if you kept the stock exhaust, did HFC and headers you could see a significant increase in power, mostly torque, and still remain relatively close to the stock sound. You can't keep it too sleeper with after market exhaust anyway. It will get loud when you get on it.

What year/trim is your 350Z?
