i dont know whether to go for headers and y-pipe, or start my exhaust from the cat-back. i know the y-pipe gives you more. what would you guys recommend me doing first. they both are in my price range($500).....

 

i dont know what headers you are getting for 500 bucks. but i would go with the cattman headers.

 

y-pipe. Or cattman headers if you can afford them. The y-pipe is what gives most of the gains though.

 

If your staying NA, go with the Y pipe. The headers gains on NA cars arent justifiable compared to their price.
CHoose the Y over the catback. You will feel the diiference with a y pipe. The catback, I didnt really notice a difference.

 

why do you need 2 threads of allmost the same thing. couldnt you have just asked both in one thread
