Diminishing returns...opinions please
I currently have the following modifications done to my 2013 G37 sedan RWD...
Mishimoto intake tubes
R2c drop ins
Throttle body coolant bypass
Grounding kit
Tanabe lowering springs
Godspeed sway bars
Custom 2" x pipe that expands to 2.25" straight exhaust
I have the stock cats still in place and plan on getting the car tuned soon. At this point is it really worth putting off the tune to install FI 2.25" resonated test pipes (no hfc) or would I be happier with the dyno tune? If we are talking a gain of less than 10whp/10wtq for swapping to resonated test pipes then I think it would be best to just tune it and drop my 3.69 diff in. I am also concerned with the volume increase/drone possibly being too much.
Have I hit that point of diminishing returns as far as modifications are concerned?
If I forgo the FI test pipes I would use the money to finish the differential install and upgrade from uprev to ecutek.

From what I was reading on the 370 forum, the z1 manifold showed some slight improvements over stock. It isn't really all that expensive either and I want all my mods to be done prior to tuning. I figured that mod wouldn't really make the car any louder as well, win win.
