Btw, does a full exhaust make any noticeable performance changes to the car? Any of you guys try that route yet?
From what I have read on here....the full exhaust with a tune does make a difference....just wondering you guy's take on that?

Based on this thread http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=81493 The headers do the best performance mod and with a tune. The cat back make the car louder and not much power.

The header and a tune makes a big difference in the note of the exhaust and wakes up the bottom end with some much needed torque.

The Overpipe and Front pipe make marginal gains, the catback is mostly for sounds.

I have the Tomei UEL and Overpipe along with the OpenFLash tune and it made a huge difference.

Does the car have more get up and go in the lower rpms? Can you mash the pedal and notice something below 5k rpm after doing the header and tune?

Precisesly, its more reactive and makes more torque, especially where it used to fall on its face (3k-4k). Another big difference, for me anyways, is that on the highway in 6th gear, it makes more power to accel easier.

If you are ever in the Southern NH area, let me know. Would be happy to take you for a ride. My exhaust is also pretty loud, so it helps with the illusion of speed.

That would be awesome to do sometime. I would love to see the difference it makes. I live in the Seacoast area so not sure how far that is from you. lol

Ya shockingly it's sold but team Nissan in manch has a 13 with"4grand " in exhaust parts audio and a tuning computer. The header melted the cam sensor wiring harness and I'm sure it's beat they want 24k for it with 56k miles
