Did you notice a difference with the intake spacers? Butt dyno? Honestly. Im getting them installed this week and I just want to know what to expect.
Thanks man! And I did the spacers at the same time as the headers and tune. I don't know how much of a difference it will feel like though. They claimed 10hp and 12ft/lbs on our car, but that's not throughout the whole RPM range, that's peak power. I know after the tune, headers, and spacers, part of my powerband showed an increase 20hp+ of peak power. Plus intake temps go down 40 degrees, definitely a good mod, IMO.

It does drone a little, doesn't bother me though. A larger resonator would fix that a little bit.

Put in the test pipe for a few more horses If you ever go to the track/ dyno.
Yes, and I believe 12.8 afr. I had the test pipe when I dynoed it, just couldn't stand the bees-in-a-can sound. It really sounded like a honda. I hateddddd that.

all 5.5 with headers and catback sound like a G/Z whn you revving it, but how da heck does nissan make the G/Z sound so sweet at idle, or partial throttle, now that is the question. i wonder if someone made a G/Z exhaust fit on a 02 maxima, would that work?.

From my understanding, it's not the muffler or piping that gives them that sound. It's the equal legnth y-pipe which our VQs don't have from how they're mounted.
And to answer what you said on YouTube... no one was walking there and I think that the 15 seconds I couldn't see the camera, I would have figured out someone took it if I saw them running away with it lol no one would steal it.
