Default FEED BACK PLEASE!!! WHATS THE BEST INTAKE/EXHAUST SETUP?

hey guys im a frickin noob here, was a honda before and switched to scion. its a completlely new thing for me. i'm not used to this whole s-pipe, midpipe, axelback thing. my integra had full catbacks mostly available.

-Can someone educate me or show me some diagrams on scion exhausts?
(mostly looking for full catback sytem though)

-And i can get any exhaust and any intake i want so whats the best setup?
(will i need s pipe? or midpipe?)
( p.s. i live in seattle so theres alot of rain. Cold air or short ram?)

AND PLEASE POST PICS!!!!!I LOVE TO SEE OTHER PEOPLE'S EXHAUSTS

heres my car: all i got is Tein H-techs, and alot alot of audio equip.

there's sticky on intake comparisons.. but i have injen... provides best results without messing up your air/fuel ratios like K&N... exhaust depends on your taste in sound.. i have TRD exhaust... look at my profile for pics if u want..

for intake i think im going with the Injen cold air...... as for exhaust im still not sure what the hell is going on? what are the available full catbacks out there? and if i got an axel bacl what pieces would fit properly and what pieces would i need to make it complete, S pipe, mid pipe? (for example if i wanted hks axel, what else would i need exhaust piping wise to get the most out of it?)

for intake get an INJEN CAI. with a bypass..

DO NOT AND I REPEAT DO NOT GET THE TRD AXLEBACK.. its garbage and will not give you any gains at the most 2hp..

your better off getting any other exhuast on the market.. but shop around.. greddy axle backs have proven to give the best performance gain and also the non sound of a rice exhuast... greddy sp2 or evo is the way to go.. and for piping.. 2.25 or 2.5 is fine.

you can also go custom and do what im doing which is a vibrant exhuast... i love them and have gotten great results and tone from them.

you cant deny that the TRD exhaust does have a very deep and muscular sound.. my girlfriend bout this car for me.. so i ordered the only performance part they offered which was the TRD exhaust.. i would also suggest either greddy or hks for an exhaust..

sorry but once you have a header to the trd exhuast it becomes a raspy over growly garbage sounding exhuast... you need to put a huge resonator to combat the noise it will create.. unless your into that super rice 18 wheeler loudness of an exhuast.. its overkill..

greddy sp2, greddy evo .. or my personal fav vibrant would be the best way... ive seen every single exhuast offered and frankly performance wise and sound wise... those i mentioned would be optimal.
