Is it really worth putting a Cold Air Intake on 370z and what HP gains

I'm buying the Post-MAF tubes and filters now also
i don't know about the sound on the FI CBE, but the exhaust i eventually wanted to go after later on down the road was the Powerhouse Amuse R1 titan exhaust, that thing sounds amazing and is light as hell to boot. from what i hear a gain of around 20whp can be had with the amuse exhaust, but it is pretty expensive.

You get the same gains on the FI plus weight loss is pretty high for a stainless exhaust. With the carbon fiber muffler your're looking at over 30lbs in weight reduction for under 1600.
I'm sure the titanium exhaust doesn't take off that much more in pounds for over double the price.

Have you ever heard the FI exhaust in person? It's freakin' ridiculous
