New 370Z owner, looking to upgrade my Z!!!

azrlee

Hi guys!!!

Last December I got my 370Z (before I had a 350z), at this moment I want to start looking for some basics, Exhaust, intake, headers and a Fuel/Ignition controller, last time it did wonder with the 350Z, don´t know if it will work with the VQ37HR, anyone can recommend any exhaust and Fuel Ignition controller?

Fast Intentions exhaust all the way. Can't help you with the other one.

Is there any specific reason for the brand in exhaust?, most Hp ?

Most hp, best look, best sound, best quality, best customer service...

Azrlee, I think M4A1 now has stock in Fast Intentions!

Read through the review threads on exhausts to decide which one sounds and looks 'right' for you. FI is a bling bling exhaust with an ostentatious exhaust note that sounds great but may be over the top for you. Stillen makes a nice exhaust (I have it) which sounds excellent with high flow cats and is a nice balance between daily driver rumbly but quiet during normal driving and raucously loud when you floor it. Berk has a new CBE which is shipping shortly and you'll find all kinds of new about it from members in the next month or two. There are other offshoot exhausts as well, so search this section of the forum and read about them all before you buy!

A fuel ignition controller... Guessing you're asking about controls for your engine maps.

Cobb AP is a good solution if you want to work with it yourself. Uprev is showing promising results. If you actually want a replacement ECU I would spend my money elsewhere first.

I love my Invidia Gemini. The Gemini has the best price, excellent quality, and is slightly quieter than FI and Stillen.

All three are popular choices though... I primarily choose Invidia because I didnt want anything too loud. Too loud though comes down to personal opinion....

I agree, you should search around and see what catches your eye. There are many options for you to choose from. I cannot decide what sound or look you are going for but what I can tell you is our system dyno's the highest HANDS DOWN!

I am going to send you a link directly to our exhaust page for the 370Z.

FI LINK: Fast Intentions

Please check it out and if you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask. As many members here will attest, I am very easy to get ahold of.

If you look at our exhaust and decide it is not a route that you want to go I understand and good luck in your ventures...

Thank you, Tony

I had the AEM FI/C on my Eclipse, pulled another 26whp from it, not sure if it works with the Z so give them a call. As far as exhaust goes, I have the stillen, I like the looks because it still looks somewhat stock and sounds amazing with the Berk HFC's, seems like its mellowed out a bit after it burned in, but still sounds great under load. I've seen the exhaust itself produce gains of 15whp plus, which would be comparative to FI's, I just got this one because I'm attempting to keep the Z a sleeper.

Thanks guys for the feedback, anyone has any comments on Borla?, I used to have it on the 350Z, sounded nice but I have to go at least one time each year to check for leaks.

FI IMO has the best look and best sound. I get guys in mustangs that hear my exhaust and then they have to get next to me and gun their engine to try and out do my exhaust and I was just driving normal. It turns heads for its looks and note. Can I get some stock in FI too now?

Well there is a reason why all the former Mustang owners on this forum have chosen FI... it is the deepest, meanest exhaust there is. It sounds as close as we will ever get to having a Ford 4.6L in our Zs!!!

But I do not want our exhaust to get the impression that it is always loud and aggressive. People still need to understand that we have a quieter option available as well.

This is true. FI has a setup for EVERYONE and Tony will make sure you order the system that is right for you!

Tony is about serving his customers. Case in point: I called Tony saying I wanted to order the 18" CBE and HFCs. He asked me some questions and said, "Steve, I think you should just order the 18" CBE... skip the HFCs." He gave up that sale because he thought that I would be fine with just the CBE... I don't know of anyone who would talk their customer out of giving them more money!

Anyways, time passes and I call Tony up and tell him I want him to add the HFCs to my order. "You sure?" "Yes!" "Alright, they're added."

Long story short, Tony was right. I sold the HFCs and installed only the CBE.

Moral of the story: Tony knows what you want. Just answer his questions and do what he tells you to do.
