Default A good start? Or should I do the sound stuff first??

RS*R GTII EXHAUST $319
DC SPORTS 4-1 HEADER $245
PERRIN PULLEY - $140
ENGINE DAMPER - $140 (WORTH IT ON THE XB?)

I grow weary of little old ladies in their Sonatas blowing me off the line....grrrr......gonna do something about it....AND

Just remembered that I have not only a IRS refund coming, but is is quarterly bonus time, too....

presumably header and exhaust should be done at the same time, to let only one shop have to mess with it, right?

FUN FUN!!!

Header/exhaust/intake actually perked up the midrange for me which makes more fun dirveability, but off the line the Perrin might help but you might as well stop worring about that now, unless you boost it. The Damper I don't know. Suspention mods increase the fun factor too.

Since you are in Scikotics, we get discounts on Strup headers and exhaust. No reason to spend the extra money if you don't have to .

It will save you $174, and you don't even have to switch to Geico.

Really? Hmmm....I suppose the Strup exhaust sound file is posted someplace nearby, eh?

I really liked the tone of the RS*R -- not too fartpipey at all....

batjet, i can do the install if you need, PM me.

The pulley, a good way invisioning the new power is like driving the car with the AC on and the AC off, you dont feel it a whole lot, but is enought to be noticed.

the header, it depends what design you bought it would allocate teh power, there is a 4/2/1 and a 4/1.

Exhaust, well thats just an exhaust. LOL.
