ive just installed my cat back exhaust,CAI,and short shifter.I had the CAI on first,it sounded so sweet when i punched it,i almost didn't want to put the exhaust on.Now im glad i did,it sounds awesome.Now i need some help..i think i got about 10 maybe 12 horses from that..i notice a lil difference.i dont care about the warranity im just not goin to install nitrous..what other mods do u suggest??
I suggest a search, this question is asked by every new member who comes to the board.
I/H/E are the best begining mods, from there I recoment the BS removal, maybe a pully, and a SAFC II.
BTW, the CAI did not give you 12hp.
::EDIT::
Dont forget suspension. Look into the Nismo (nonadjustable) and Tein (adjustable) coilover kits. Also if you care about perfomace in corners, new tires and maybe the nismo rear swaybar.

Between exhaust and intake their may be 12 hp. If you dont mind a little vibration at low RPMs, motor mounts. ANd if you get all of your conventional mods done, cams give a rather large horsepower gain over the entire RPM band.

How much power do you typically get from motor mounts? I heard that the Stillen mounts are good for about 24WHP. Also, I heard that Tornado is coming out with turbo mounts good for 50+WHP.

lol. Why do I detect sarcasm? I dont think the inserts provide much in terms of horsepower gains but (as I am willing to bet you know) they definately help alleviate wheel hop and improve shifts and obviously that is an important upgrade. For people who want speed, the 50 bucks for inserts is worthwhile. Now cams...then we are talking about some more ponies...mmmmm...
now im lookin for camshafts,chips,and headers...is there any other performance parts i should get?(besides turbo&nitrous)
AGAIN, try to SEARCH, these questions have been answered over and over again. Your posts will get locked if you do not start searching.
Cams - Nismo & JWT (only two out there)
Chips - there are none, the ecu has not been crakced (must be a million threads on this)
Header - there are at least 20 threads on this, SEARCH. try hotshot, they are the best.

Analogy time: Lets suppose you worked in a big home center like Home Depot or Lowes. If someone came in and mentioned they're building a house and needed flooring, lumber, piping, wiring, etc., but didn't know where to start, what would you think?
BlackoutSpecV is entirely correct. You really need to try and do some of your own research. One suggestion includes reading through this very forum. There are over two years worth of posts. You also should read the NissanPerformanceMag.com Project Spec V articles.
Suggestion #3: go to your Users CP and click on "Edit Profile". Scroll down to the "Additional Information" section and enter what you have for a car. It helps if we know what you actually drive when asking questions. I'm assuming you have a Spec V, but since you didn't specify I could very well be incorrect.
BTW, I am closing this thread. The questions and information in this thread are so vague it's really not helpful.
