best performance N/A upgrades

I am tired of getting outrun by my friend in his 07 350z, I have the basic mods listed in my sig and am wanting to go w headers, hf cats, plenum spacer and a reflash when all is done. What are the best things i can do w/o FI. not against F/I , but i plan on an ati s/c kit later on. Oh yea and i just got my new revup v2 installed at the dealer about a month ago/1100 miles on it.

MREV2 + 5/16 spacer, Z-tube, and a cat-back exhaust will get you close....

Not doubting you, but hard to believe. The Z's with the HR motor are in the E46 M3 range number wise, of which our cars have a hard time touching. I can't imagine the gearing making up that much...but then again you never know.

Its not hard to believe. With the right mods it is possible. I am in 335/E46 M3 range. By that i mean i am slower about 0.1 second from a perfectly driven M3 335. Recently had a run with 335 auto 10-110mph 4 consecutive times in a closed runway and all 4 times my front bumper was by his driver's door. With 4.1 gears I am sure i will pull away from those cars with ease. Right now i only have 4 mods on my car as far as the engine goes. It not how many mods u have is what kind of choices u made when u started modding ur car.

I totally agree which is why I have decided to go FI...it's hard to pull out power from these cars in NA form. Do you have the 4.1 gears?

Would you like to share what kind of mods you are running?

I'm also interested in knowing the best performance N/A mods for the G.

I would assume:

MREV
Spacer
Exhaust (Which?)
Test Pipes / HFC's (Which?)
Intake (Ztube + K&N DROP or Stillen?)
4.1 Gearing
UTEC - Tune

If you have the rev-up motor you should be able to pull on the 07' 350z's...
