best mod for horsepower gain without FI or n20 would be test pipes/HFC. most noticeable mod for our cars when driving would be sway bars. what are you modding your car for? do you want it just faster? or do you want it to stand out from the dentist down the street driving the same car? if you are modding you car for performance get test pipes/hfc. looks get rims and a drop, or exhaust. improved handling get coilovers, sways. also try searching this topic has been discussed many, many, many times.

All the horsepower in the world doesn't matter if you can't get it to the wheels.

I had similar question as well! Too cheap to invest on a SC or TT.

Its been said but I'll echo it. HFC/Test Pipes.

I kinda did it backwards but this is my first real mod car so I was a bit amateurish about it. I went CAI, Pulley, then RHFC for my power gains

Everyone I asked said CATs are the most restricted. So HFC. I got sweet deal on Berk test so I went that route after getting Stillen Dual CBE. Too raspy for me. HFC up next or maybe ART test. But I guess it really matter on what your taste and way of doing things is. Many ways to gain same hp though, just depends on your pockets! Lol.

Pretty hard to get significant power out of our cars so was wondering what the top 1 would be.
The "Best Mod" is hands down the driver mod. Learn to drive the car instead of the car driving you. Once you reach that level than start looking for extra HP/TA time. 99% of car owners can't drive their vehicle to it's best.

Thats Funny Robert_K but also correct! That's normally what I would say about a motorcyle and the cc's, but It very well apply's to cars too! Especially when I spanked a vortech supercharged VW and a Twin Turbo 300z with a stock 07 Prelude. Dont get me wrong the tuning on the top end of that car was on point but I think the drivers dont know how to handle there rides.

Don't agree. We have a serious lag in throttle response.

This is what is on Z1's website. Not sure if it helps DC

These gears will fit G37 / 370Z differentials, manual transmission model cars only
