Also ceramic coating will help with heat as well. Do you plan on installing straight pipes,resonators,or HFC? It will depend on what whp and wtq gains you actually see and also I would advise after you do your LTH install to retune. Although the answer would be yes you will gain whp and wtq after you install LTH’s but your Genuine Nissan OEM headers are not a bottleneck in your exhaust system. LTH header install would be worth it I believe if you are doing to labor. If you are paying labor to a shop to install your LTH for you I have seen people pay be charged 8-10+ hours labor depends on how is installing them? My first LTH install took 8 hours. The cons are that all LTH brands for our Z’s are expensive and are labor intensive. The PPE and FI LTH’s are also excellent quality LTH’s. I installed the Motordyne LTH’s along with the XYZ and straight pipes on a previous Z it was a nice set up I liked it.

Thank you so much for your input.
I am just worried about my car being too loud without hfc. That’s what I am thinking of motordyne. They have the option of hfc or Resonator or something like that to reduce the rasp or noise. Correct me if I am wrong :-)’
I don’t drive in rain or snow that much since the car is not my daily. Not too worried about the rust. But I will definitely have to pay someone to install the Header for me since I am not a handy guy at all.
