if you have the budget, forget abt bolts on...you will need tunes anyways to get the most out of it..

i thought injen's exhaust was true dual? no need for y-pipe if you're going for true dual exhaust.

well with the route you're going at, you can go with NA bolt ons then with a SC later. however, if you want to go with TT, plan only the intake and a TD exhaust with sufficient piping.

whichever path you choose, good luck to you!

Thank you guys for all the help..

I was talking to my brother who has an M3 sc 390whp, and I told him the same think if I should go for turbo.
He said, only if you love your car and you think you can leave it. But today I was trying to feel this thing on my car, couldn't find the answer. Maybe because every body talks about the M3 like if it's F430 or so, and our G35 doesn't have this thing. Yes, I had been told my car sexy but ... I don't know. When I saw the SC on my brother M3 it has nice setup you can’t even tell if it has supercharge every thing looks clean, but if I did install turbo on my G the engine will have more than 50 colors. U know what I mean... What do u guys think?

woohoo another retarded and pointless post on your part. Tunes are more important than you think there moron. A tuned car will run much better and stronger than an overly rich or lean motor.

With those mods, on a N/A car, it's really worth either ripping out your ECU and sending it away to be programmed and hope it works out, or to pay $1000 for a UTEC just to squeeze out a few more hp

Save up for turbo or supercharger.... Its a waste of money to do all those bolt on's... Especially if you wanna compete with that M3...
