Fujitsubo Muffler + Cobb AP
i am ready to tune my G up now, since i never moded any car before, i would like to start with my Muffler and ECU, the question i have is, how much HP i can gain on Cobb AP Stage one map by just replacing the muffler? anyone has any idea? i know just for muffler its only gonna be 5Hp+, but how much it can gain after i use the Cobb Ap?

Don't expect much gains from just a muffler

instead of spending the money on the cobb you can get your self a nice ingen or Stillen CAI and gain about 5 times as much power and change the sound at the same time.
Stillens been shown to get around 15-18 hp wherass UCLA Bruin dynod his ingen CAI at about 16 whp i think
Don't waste your money!

They both will give you the same power if any bc they are axlebacks. As far as sound that is a personal preference... me I would go with the fuji bc thats like the old nismo exhaust which I loved but word of advice, they dont come alive until you add test pipes or hfc's if not they are very quiet

I think i am gonna go for tanabe, it sounds more deeper, and it looks better than Fuji.
i saw one Tanabe is only 599 on ebay, but on other websites it costs about 749.99, which one should i buy, both all new ones.
btw, what is test pipe? is that a down pipe?

Don't know if I agree with that part.yes he needs more than a muffler,but I'm putting down 325 to the wheels,thanks to chamellion(professional tuner)but using the cobb with the loaded stock map.he was able to adjust the a,f ratio,big difference and way better throttle response(no lag).my mods are fi cat back,fi hfc's and stillen stage 3 cai.so I gained 15 whp, granted his gain will be less,but the car drives a lot better that's 100 percent.
