#46
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! And another that says 2011 Shelby Cobra! LOL!
CAI, UR/UDP, FSTB, RSTB, NWP Isothermal Spacers, NWP Via Plate, Polished IM, Y-pipe, NKG Iridium Sparkplugs, Custom Catback, Eurorotor X-drilled, Hawk Ceramic Brake Pads, Trenz Grille w/Japanese Trunk Emblem, Tinted Windows, etc. Considerng JET computer.
"The NGK IX Iridium showed a 2.76hp average increase and a 5.85lb-ft average torque increase over the stock plug, however, the IX Iridium also showed the most consistent and reliable horsepower figures."
That's a quote from NKG using an independant test lab!
It flies OK...that's all you need to know!

No worries about cost, the best mods are:
Cams, headers, nwp spacers, ypipe, intake, bpipe/mufflers, pulley.
And of course a piggyback tuning device used in conjunctions with mods will allow you to get the most out of your bolt ons.

^^^^ What happened to three? But good call on the NWP spacers, I forgot about those.
After reading through this if cost is a consideration.
1. Y-pipe
2. Catback
3. Spacers or CAI (CAI lose low end but gains on highway pulling power) Pick your poison)

And these intake manifold spacers, I'm interested in them, does anyone have a rough estimate to what it would cost to have them installed? I just got my progress springs in the mail, but can't afford to have them installed till my next paycheck, most places are wanting $300-500 to install them. That's almost twice what I paid for them. Also, do I need to purchase the Camber screws?

good thread ... i just got in from the track tonight ... ive had the max about 3 years (only 2nd time to the track in it), i went 14.56 at 95 ... decent air tonight here in cincy, the da was 900' ...
i watched a manual g35 run 14.90's all night with mods, im bone stock down to the paper air filter ... i think driving is the key ... im 37 and have been racing for almost 20 years, the kid in the g35 was prob in his early 20's ...
next time im going to try the slap shifter, i think it over*revs when you leave it in drive ...
how fast have you guys been all stock in your 04-08 maximas?
like the op states, whats a good cheap bang for the buck? ... does a tune pick these things up? ... when you mod your max, like an intake or exaust does the computer pick up the changes? ...
im good at mustangs, but dont know much about nissans ...
