Probably not losing any power down low -- test pipes and exhaust delete are common mods that haven't shown losses to the best of my knowledge -- and you almost certainly gained a good bit up top.

Now, how the ECU has adjusted to these changes (especially without a tune to deal with the missing cats...) isn't clear.

Do you have a CEL (SES) light on?

haha I was gonna ask you for a video of your car, good looks it sounds insaneee. Anyone know any good tuners that do uprev in Jersey? Probably going to be a while before I tune it tho, still have a lot of modding to be done. Envy, big difference in how the car ran before and after a tune? I know with my Talon heavily modded, it ran lean and like **** before a tune.

where in jersey are you?

R/T tuning is in the Philly area. they are well known for 370Z tuning and have a fall special right now.

and where i went AAM Competition is in the Baltimore area.

as for the before and after on the tune. YES lol

i put my full exhaust on (with mufflers) and my intakes so i was due for a tune.

pre-tune i baselined at 309whp/250wtq
post tune was 324whp/258wtq

plus i had them bump up my redline, remove speed limiter, raise my transmission line pressure, etc...

it made a difference for sure. went out the next day while still in the area to Capitol Raceways and ran my PB 1/4 mile ET of 12.89 @ 111mph.

North Jersey in Wayne, so not toooo far from Philly. I plan on getting the aam s line midpipe, then after that maybe nst pullies. Still researching on the FI long tube headers, and not sure if I am going to be going with test pipes of hfc. I think the car will be too loud with those options, especially with my short tails and midpipe setup lol. Any advice or recommendations on mods bro?

Thanks for all the info I appreciate it.
