If I were you, I'd go with the stainless steel Y-pipe from Cattman. Hands down, that is more bang for your buck. Then, I'd put on a cat-back exhaust system. Then lowering springs and sport struts. Then a front strut tower brace and a rear anti-sway bar. Then better tires/wheels. Enjoy.

RE: Your Question...

I agree with bullseye all the way. Y-pipe is the way to go. Just trying to help .

You're going to notice a difference in the way your car handles with that FSTB. Just wait until you install a RSB. Oh, Baby! Very little body roll. The stockers won't be able to keep up with you in the twisties. I notice that all the time. They start out right on my bumper, checking out my 110mm exhaust tip, I guess. Before long, they just fade...

Get in on the possible group buy on headers! Do it right the first time, read my post in the general forum.

The Y-pipe will ADD power to your car(typically about 10-15 at higher rpms). The lightened UDP will FREE UP power on your car by giving less power to the AC and Alternator. The Y-pipe will add more power. I am selling my Stillen Y-pipe(2.5") in about a month. I have had it on my car for 11 days (counting today, friday). I will have a SC then and need a bigger pipe. It was $330 new, without shipping. Make me an offer and I'll see if I can take it off sooner.

IMO the udp is a waste ,very small difference in power. And if you ever get a SC you will have to take udp off.
