It's not a gas pedal. It's a song pedal. It plays beautiful music the faster you go. LOL

I'm sorry to repeat my question, but my exhaust is just a few weeks away... does anybody have any idea how many rwhp the FI exhaust will net me over the factory Nismo exhaust? No way it's a downgrade power-wise, right? I guess it's too late anyway, but I'm surprised nobody has been able to quantify this. Come to think of it, I'm surprised I didn't do this homework beforehand.

Probably around 10-15, maybe up to 20 whp over the Nismo. (that only applies if you have a bone stock 370Z Nismo)

Honestly, it's hard to say exactly. The difference is probably very minimal. Most exhausts are going to give you a very similar power increase. You're probably talking 2 to 5 rwhp difference between the FI and the Nismo, at the most. It's most certainly not 10 to 20.

Unless you're going with forced induction at some point, your choice of exhaust should be based more on build quality and sound.

/my 2 cents
