Default new guy looking for advice and info

Well this is my first post on this forum.. im looking for advice on what could air intake and exhaust system combination would be best (concidering a great sound and performanc). Sound clips/video are welcome (and yes, i did search, but i couldn't find any videos or sound clips that were helpful). Im concidering getting an injen exhaust with the injen cold air intake. Please tell me if im going in the ride direction.. thanks

I'm not sure about the exhaust... but for intake, I'd recommend Injen or AEM. Both seem to be doing very well (I have Injen). The Injen might be most popular at the moment and is very nice. But AEM was pretty late to market, so they're a bit behind. There's is very nice though and many people love it so far.

Well i dont really care about the cosmetic aspect of the exhaust.. I really want a few extra horsepower to come from it, but yet still have a nice, deep tone.

And another thing. I saw the intake on a site and it said it was for the 5 speed tc. I have an automatic. I didnt think it mattered what transmission you have. Or does it? And if it is ok for me to put it on there.. is it difficult to install?

I sing the praises of the Draxas system.. I highly recommend it (based on performance) and it sounds INCREDIBLE. The only problem is that it's pretty pricey. It's well worth it if you can afford it. I can put a vid up of the sound later this afternoon if you want...I've been meaning to anyway..
