Before you do the flash you should get all the breathing bolt ons done first (Plenum, exhaust, test pipes/hf cats), if not you won't see that great of a gain.

Test pipes go in place of you catalytic converter. The catalytic converters are restrictive so when you put free flowing pipes in their place you free up some horse power cause the engine is breathing better.
High Flow Catalytic converters (HF Cats) are like test pipes, only they are cats. They are less restrictive than the stock cats. People who have emissions testing usually will get hf cats instead of test pipes. We don't get tested in Miami so I have test pipes.
I don't know how to explain a plenum. Go here for an explanination.

Forget the Injen CAI depending on where you live the word HYDROLOCK comes into mind. Yes it has happened to a G already and it's a very expensive repair bill. I have never liked the pop chrarger because of all the heat that it can suck up under the hood. The heat shield that it came with does not do a damn thing for the intake. You are better off with just the K&N drop in and Z tube you get better results in the long run. The plenum spacer is a good addition specially at wide open throttle (WOT). I would also suggest the HF cats I think it's a better option than changing your entire exhaust system. Crawford is a good brand to have for the HF cats not to raspy. Reset your ecu by disconnecting your battery for 12hrs or more. These mods are very inexpensive the most money you will be spending on this mod is about $600 for the cats the rest are peanuts. K&N dropin filter is about $58 and the Z tube about $80. The filter you get just about any local auto supply store. The Z tube try Performance Nissan in Duarte, CA I think they are still a sponsor of my350z.com look for them there. I hope this will help you out on your decision goodluck and happy modding.

from battery, not the battery itself with the terminals on!) terminals for several seconds. This will keep you from having to let it sit over night.

In fact leasing is just like purchasing except in leasing you pay what you use that's why car payment is a bit lower than purchasing. By this I mean you don't pay the whole taxes up front. You get a better trade in value when it's time to get rid of your car because of the lower milage. However, should you go over the miles never fear. This where all the wrong misconception is made about a lease vehicle. Remember this because it will be very useful for you when it comes to trade in your car. Milage DOES NOT MATTER IF YOU ARE TRADING IN YOUR CAR FOR A NEW ONE. Do not let them tell you otherwise if they charge you extra because you went over you milage during your lease take your business elsewhere. If you are buying a new car to replace a current leased car the dealer should NOT CHARGE you the extra miles. I have been leasing all my car since this lease option came out years ago. I find it more affordable than purchasing a car. I find myself changing cars every 3-4 yrs anyway so I was just throwing money away in purchase. In leasing you pay for what you use there is a residual value at the end of the lease. You can either purchase the car then or just get rid of it right out and get a new one. Now if you are over milage and plan to surrender the car to the bank without purchasing a new one then this is the time you pay extra for over milage. BTW this is not restricted to an Infiniti dealer you can trade your car in to any dealer. Remember the cars value is determined more on it's condition and appearance and not how it's being finance. Remember one more thing you lease what depreciates in value like a car and buy what appreciates in value like a house.
Leasing is nothing like purchasing.
First off, you get NO trade in value off a lease. You just turn in the car. You have nothing at the end of the lease to trade in. The monthly payments you make on a lease pay only for the depreciation of the car.
Second, mileage certainly does matter. Try to turn in your car at the end of the lease over mileage and see if you don't get charged.
Third, tax implications depend on the state, I believe. Some states do base tax on the portion of the car you use (basically, sale price - residual value), or even monthly payment. Many states base it only on the sale price, though, so there is no tax difference between leasing and buying.
It sounds to me like you are referring to buying out the lease vehicle and immediately trading it in. If you buy out your lease car, then yes, you can trade it in. And usually banks will waive any over-mileage fees if you buy out the vehicle after the lease. But, that all can depend on the residual value that was agreed upon vs. the actual value of the car. If the residual value is 15K, but the car is only worth 10K, then you have a -$5000 trade in value.
Yea i was serious i know what the cai is and the exaust is and headers and chip and **** never heard of plenum or hf cats... anyways thanks for the input last question i have is can you special order the 2005 g35 in white with black interior?
