Default Bought a used z , can you identify this?

I just bought a used 370z i test drive it and i was wowed , this thing is fast compared to my previous 09 370z. The sound is amazing, lots of low end power soi said to myself that this has some aftermarket performance mod. So i looked under the hood and under exhaust and look what i found. I know that it has stillen cold air but what gen? What kind of exhaust system is this ? Thx!

Stillen intake is good for about 15-18hp and the exhaust is about the same. However mods don't simply add up like that. So while intake may be good for 15hp and exhaust 15hp also it doesn't mean you gained 30hp. Most intake and exhaust set ups give a combined gain of about 20-25hp.

20-25hp is noticable. But shouldn't give you WOW kind of feeling.

I meant, if you feel lots of low end power, the car might have been tuned as well.
