Hey Z1. ETA on those headers?

Well, all I had was the Stillen 3 CAI and the dyno read 298. After installing the Z1 headers & test pipes, lightspeed exhaust and uprev & tune only 318. 90+ outside but from my view that is around about 5hp a piece. Now I'm just a simple country boy but I would say for over 3 grand that wasn't and isn't worth it. Still love the sound though. I'm new to all of this import stuff and so maybe there was more than I could see. Some of you guys know a lot but really Nissan wants to sale more cars than there needs to be more modding to do other than two types of headers, two types of CAI, I mean the only thing that I have seen that has options is the exhaust. I mean I realize that there is more than one or two products for each bolt on but seems to be only one that ever actually adds any hp. I mean if your a poor man like me and want something to terrorize street cars and run like hell I would say FI. If you are happy with a little extra hit and want something to sound different then this might be your route. I know some will say well if that's what you want is to mod then you should have bought a LS1 or blah blah blah but I love the look of all the Z cars and if I bought an import I wanted it to be a Z. Z are great cars and have one of the best communities I have ever seen on and off forums.
