For example:
Nismo 370z:
350hp delete OEM Nismo Exhaust (-18 hp) = 332 hp and then (+18 hp for FI CBE) = 350 hp

Sport 370z:
332hp delete OEM Exhaust and then (+18hp for FI CBE) = 350 hp

Or will the Nismo 370z still have bit more HP because of the tuning?


No, both cars HP will vary since mods have been added and not tuned. Having a car slightly tuned before mods i.e. Nismo doesn't mean it carries over. I believe that's what you asking.

Either way the body kit will hold the Nismo back in a straight line race, it's like .1 in 1/4. On a course the Nismo vs Sport is marginal with the same driver, unless said course has high speed turns/braking areas. Then the Nismo will shy forward.
