meant to post this thread last week but ran out of time. last weekend i met up with my good friend dustin in charlotte to attend cars and coffee then head over to CIN Motorsports to get his new Amuse exhaust installed on his Nismo 350z. for those unfamiliar with Amuse, they are one of the premier japanese aftermarket companies and make many cost-no-object parts for various cars. since it was a dyno day, bobby@CIN was gracious enough to let us dyno the car before and after the exhaust. it managed a reasonable 284.4 whp (corrected) as it rolled in the door with only the Nismo CAI kit, Berk HFC's and custom Uprev tune by Jon@Z1 on CIN's Mustang dyno. we proceeded to install the exhaust, do a few quick runs up and down the road to hear what it sounds like then hit the dyno again to see the gains. to everyone's astonishment, the car made 300.7whp without tweaking the tune. that's 16hp gain from exhaust! not to mention it dropped almost 50 lbs off the car. now for the media...

BIG thank you to Chinchi down at Speed For Sale for sourcing the exhaust for Dustin and I can't say enough about the guys over at CIN for being just as eager to see the results as us!
