Custom Y pipe - 5 hp (less back pressure)
Muffler Delete - 5 hp (less back pressure)
Short Shifter - 0 hp (Faster Shifts) Nissan 370Z Short Throw Shifter
Test Pipes - 20 hp (had to take them off because I hate the metal sound) Fast Intentions

What else can I do to make power?



I have some ideas~

M370 Intake Manifold - 14hp - Motordyne M370 intake manifold
Motor Mount/ Transmission Mount - 10hp (less power loss) - Drop Engineering Engine Mounts (Drop Engineering)
Uprev - Up to 20hp

Whatelse can be done to increase the power on 370z without going FI?

Update:

Under Drive Pulley - 10 hp - STILLEN Underdrive Performance Lightweight Crank Pulley 400370 | STILLEN
Light Flywheel - 5ish hp -
seems like you aren't asking the right question. Ask yourself how fast do you want to go in the quarter mile? the car is around what 13.5 - 13.0 bone stock. if you want to run 10s and 11s in the quarter I guess you should save and go twin turbo. If you're happy with a 12 second range car (like me) standard bolt-ons (intake, exhaust, Cold air intake, manifold and a tune gets you there), then if you need more, get you some 4.08 gears and the LSD upgrade to help put it down). I'm at the point now where the next mod would probably be a LSD (My car doesn't have the sport package) and the gears to finish it off.

just my opinion though...
