To bad Motordyne wasn't making exhaust systems back in '06 but glad I have their 1/2" spacer ISO copper!

I am running Borla with my 1/2" spacer and test pipes (non res). I enjoy the sound, but I'm currently looking for the Injen SES. I heard it at a meet, and I fell in love....

Lots of Gs are slammed on 20s. Get coils and adjust to your liking..

Many of the things we're learning right now about intake is stock is technically best- especially if you're not tuning. Intake may be nice to change the sound... if so then it's largely subjective. I ran with a stillen high flow box with K+N cone filter, Z tube and ended up with a MD 5/16ths spacer. With the stock exhaust the thing sounded disGusting.

If you're not doing a tune and you're not doing your cams then headers are a waste. They barely qualify as a bolt on unless you're lifting the motor. In addition, they lead to rasp if not addressed in your exhaust- Rasp, btw, is the enemy of the G35 community.

I have heard alot of complaints saying that the G's are a pain to drop, do you have any thoughts on that?

When you lower the car you will most likely need camber kits as well to keep the alignment close to spec.
