On both dyno plots on the uncorrected graph that has Z1 intakes, it's making more power up top. When we start looking at SAE results, everything gets masked in calculations.

Edit: Those cats are definitely bottlenecking the exhaust. I guarantee opening that up would gain at least 10whp no tune on RTP's or TP's. It's almost like confirmation that to get more power over a Nismo exhaust with an aftermarket exhaust, you need to replace your cats.
I went full bolt-on prior to FI and I can say without a doubt that swapping the stock cats for HFCs was the single biggest NA mod.
