Search button is a MUST! but starting with a MD spacer and high flow cats is a good start!

If you are racing Acuras, it sounds like you need a large can (noise = power) and a wing would do you well. As well as carbon fiber trim inside. And a carbon fiber hood (obviously don't paint it, that's just added weight).

Thanks for all the replys, I have searched it but most of the stuff I found was just talking. The g35 not the x and I didn't know what restrictions I had performance wise and you guys think turbo is better than supercharger

It really depends. Both have their advantages. They aren't bolt ons like spacers and that other cheap stuff. You can buy a full kit, or you can fabricate one. If you can fabricate, you can get a turbo and build the cold and hot side piping on your own. If you can fabricate, a turbo kit can be made very cheap. There is still tuning to do then as well. Personally, I wouldn't take an over the counter/mail order tune for a turbo kit. I would take it to a shop and have it dynotuned. Or even better, tune it at the track.

As Arkansasg35x said: Start with a Motordyne plenum spacer and high flow cats.
After add an Osiris tune.
If its not enough and you have lot of money to put on your car, go fi (turbo or supercharger).

Maybe you need to learn your car more first cause your car is already as fast as a Tls.

I have a 2005 g35x with MD 5/16 spacer, Berk HFC, Osiris standard tune and a ztube for the sound. Before these mods my 1/4 mile best was at 14.6 and now at 14.0.

I hope your always race on a track.
You dont have to win to have fun look at my video against faster cars.

For less than the price of the turbo kit on a g35x, you can pick up a clean Fox Body mustang and run 12s all day... And not have to worry about breaking your daily driver.

Having an X, the only exhaust component you need to worry about is the Y pipe.

What do you mean about that? I've been on these forums searching high and low and never read anything of that. I just installed a Megan y with the axle back but looking just to take axle back and put stock back on.
