Starter list of motor upgrades ..

So been doing a lot of reading up on some "bolt on" power/performance/preference, upgrades and heres a short list of things id like to do asap.

any feedback or suggestions on improving this list would b awesome, know this is just a start but hopefully a good one ?

---TECHNOS ECU Flash for NISSAN
http://www.technosquareinc.com/g35.htm
(or one like it)

---Z-tube with K&N drop in Intake
http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/de...333320312.html
http://www.stillen.com/product.asp?id=STIZTBE01
(longtime fan of k&n)

---MotorDyne Plenum Spacer
http://www.motordyneengineering.com/G35.php
(this one is for sure)

--Grounding Kit
https://g35driver.com/forums/reviews...es-review.html
(would be awesome)



-then farther in the future would b a MREV 2 Manifold-

Add some high flow cats or test pipes, and forget the Technosqaure and get Osiris instead.. if you have revup motor, get the MREV2. The spacer alone won't do any good...

It would depend on which motor you have... if you have an 05+ with 6MT transmission, then you have a revup motor and the spacer alone won't do much good. You'd see more gains from the MREV2 without a spacer, but if you combine both, you'll see huge gains. If you have any other motor, the spacer alone will give you gains.

It looks like you have a good plan going here. I agree with the MREV. The MREV + Spacer on the Revup is the way to go. Also, you really don't want to do the same labor twice.

Osiris is very handy unless you can live without your car for a few days or live near Technosquare.

Hi-Flow cats or test pipes, upgraded y-pipe, and a y-back exhaust would be a nice addition too.

Keep researching and make a shopping list. Don't forget about brake/suspension mods too.

What kind of car do you have? If you have a 6MT any year your brakes are gonna be fine as long as you don't track the car for a long time.

MREV2 ONLY if you have a Rev-up (2005-2007 6MT). if you do add a spacer in too. If you have a non-Revup, skip the MREV2 for something like high flow cats.

Spacer/ Intake(Popcharger+ztube)/ MREV2/ Osiris Reflash/ Exhaust/ High Flow cats are basically the most you can do for the car.

Keep in mind with intake and exhaust, they are more for sound, all the hp gains are about the same.
