I think the average CAI, HFC, CBE combination nets about 30whp, not bad.
320+ up from 280+ is mighty impressive. I think it's worth the cost then. I've already installed the hks suction kit so I'm done with the intake (nismos won't fit the Stillen CAI).

My main concern is sound too and 5zigen (along with Stillen) is the best sounding IMO. I'm willing to sacrifice some whp for that awesome sound. So definitely, HKS exhaust is crossed out of the list even if it could give me more power. Also, I kinda want to keep my japanese car with jdm parts (no offense to american part makers, just a preference). besides, it's waaay easier and faster to ship japanese parts to where I'm from. Any info on the whp gains on japanese exhausts would be appreciated

I'm rambling... I'll read more on the best full exhaust mods. thanks
