This has been discussed to death. A intake will help(a little), an exhaust(a little more), notably a Y pipe will help. Headers WILL NOT help, ours are as efficient as they come.

If you want your car to be faster, add mods, if not, don't...

no change

Actually all mods are worthless!
No matter what you do your car will be the same!
Mods just give you something to brag about!
You can try to put those things on but you wont tell a difference...I promise!

It's sounds like you should join SMC. BTW while I can understand your perspective{kinda}, it is not really true. Yes mods help but lots of times it's hard to notice the gains with the but dyno. Once you add lots of mods and then drive a stock max{I30 4 me} back to back you really notice the difference, I know I do.

If you want real power, get a Super charger, it blows away all the other bolt on's in terms of perforamance.

I almost don't have the heart to tell you, but the headunit in Bose equipped Maxima's IS a Clarion head unit.
