As far as exhaust for x we dont have many choice...there is currently group buy for ark exhaust. And intake i have mishimoto silicone hose with jwt and made my own heat shield. I thought about getting real cold air intake like stillen but did not want to go through hassle taking off bumper every time i need to clean filter.

 

So for the G37s what kind of exhaust would I buy from the cat back? And am I just stuck with buying a stillen cold air intake

 

Stillen gen 3 intakes are a great choice and as far as exhaust you have plenty of options for the RWD. GT Haus, Morordyne, Fast Intentions, ARK,

 

Orly? You know that, do you?

 

For op check out the newbie section. Thats where I started a few months ago. Read the mods for $$$ which was a great right up and it gives you great ideas. Btw I'm still a noob I have a 2011 x. Since im in Florida and the heat is killer, my first mod was 15% ceramic tint. The sways were next and although at first it felt a bit weird with a few days I knew it was the way to go. I wanted performance first so the takeda was next. I just received notification that my fast intentions is currently being shipped i swear i didnt bug lance i just emailed him once couldnt resist after waiting for like what feels forever. Should be on soon need to make appointment at revworks. Now agenda is two new tires for fronts work on rims and see where it goes from there. Reading everyone's stuff is great and inspiring but we don't have a boat load of money so especially take Rochesters plan ahead slow and steady where you plan mods in segments a little at a time. Just my noobish 2 cents. Wait shiny things my first mod thanks kenny carsmo *****.

 

Also forgot upgraded break pads stoptech dusty but have saved my life once already. Takeda intake gains in sound is what I really think it does but once again shiny things.

 

Dont be fooled we do, I have a "RWD" cataback on my X Coupe. The thing you need to rememer or look at is the design of the Y Pipe.

If it looks like a U it will fit First pic and is on my car( ARK Grip), if it looks like a V it will not second pic.

 

I would just drive it, maybe focus on the handling department and have it look a little nicer with some coupe wheels. It's not worth modding this car for performance as it's not going to get you much. It's a nice luxury car that looks good.

 

Best thing you can do to feel faster at a low price is upgrading the brakes and the swaybars. Those two things will help immensely in drivability and handiling. After that all the air mods and tune will still only get you to the low 13's in the quarter. If you are looking for real changes in speed you ether need to go forced induction or get another car. Unfortunately you can't change the gearing in the AWD cause that also helps a ton.

 

For your rims id look into ambit wheels. theyre quality and you can get an entire set for sub 500

 

Just bought a 13 37xS. In a lot of older threads they talk about the grounding wire kits. Is this still a needed upgrade?

 

It made a huge difference on my 2011.
