Default next upgrade?

i was thinking full exhaust. Headers, cats, replace the stupid square y-pipe, cat-back. Slp offers an exhaust package for almost 1.5 grand where everything bolts up and is compatible with all factory emissions equipment according to their website for the 01 - 02 birds. Any other companies offer full exhaust set ups? After that new intake and cold air induction. Agree?

I would check into others if possible. I'm not a fan of most SLP parts, but i've heard you lose A LOT of clearance with their set up

You will loose no more clearence than anyother type of exhaust with SLP's new designed headers. The old design had clearence issues.

I think i found the new design you're talking about, do you have a link for the re designed ones? As of now i'm thinking Slp headers, cats, and y-pipe with my current borla cat back.

American Racing Long Tube Headers - 800
TSP Catted Y Pipe - 350
Magnaflow Catback Exhaust System - 400

If I was spending 1,500 on exhaust, that's the route I'd go.
