I've looked into MD, but just wouldn't consider it. Ran nothing but Fast Intentions on my G37, and not looking to change now. Only options for me were Resonated TPs or Resonated HFCs. The "pros & cons" of both, the HFCs came out on top. The midrange of TQ from 3500-5500 is higher in the HFCs, with the HP of the TP not surpassing the HFC until nearly 6k in the powerban.

What people don't realize is how much flow HFCs truly have.
Good choice...about people not realizing how much flow HFC's have...you're right....but to them I say...They're not called "High Flow Cats" for nothing....

I can't imagine having to store away my Z and not drive it.... That really sucks....Glad that we don't have those issues here on Guam..Get to drive the Z 365 days a year.... I don't know how you guys all do it back there during the winter time ....But then again I could imagine that it would be hard to a Z in the winter...

I've owned a G35 5AT, a G37 6MT, and now my Nismo. The G35 was my daily driver right out of college, which I drove for 2 winters. It honestly wasn't that bad, and I didn't even have winter tires.

The main factor around storing my G37 and now my Nismo is avoiding the salt. It absolutely DESTROYS a car along w/ the goodies we install on it.
