I ended up going with the AEM CAI. They had free shipping and gave me a discount so I just took it. Im waiting for it in the mail.

 

getting the aem water bypass valve is a worthwhile investment.

 

Yes T1R has decent gains to F20 engines and it's definitely a worthy upgrade.

 

Be careful when choosing headers, lot's of stories about people losing power with the wrong headers as well and the same goes for exhaust. I'm using the Falken TI exhuast w/ the V2, sounds great and noticable gains. Keep on researching and you'll find a good combo

 

I agree with tenblade on 2 of his 3 suggestions. You would need to add headers and intake, but exhaust is a waste of money unless your'e looking for different looks or sound.

 

Thats the general understanding I get from most people is that exhaust is mostly for looks and sound. Cat-back and Intakes are for HP gains.

I used Exhaust in a general term not being specific. Though I have been told that if Im going to do either exhaust or cat-back to my car, and plan to do the other in the future that I might as well wait and do it all at once. So once I get some more cash I will most likely look in to adding both at the same time.
