Yeah, I was thinking the exhaust manifolds too, but I don't think there's much much we can do about that for now, w/o spending a fortune.

As far as the DP, I really want to get one, but I've heard too many conflicting stories on it's benefit to shell out the $300 just yet. I'm sure within the next year I'll have one, just not right now.
I don't know if I would spend the money on an exhaust w/out replacing the dp first. I have a catless dp with the 2nd o2 sensor codes deleted/ignored. No e-check in these parts, yet. I have about $150.00 in it. If I were to do it all over again I would just by the Hogan catless dp for about the same $$. Nothing against the environment but I think dp's with a converter were about $400. I'm on a budget.

I hear ya, but I'm not too keen on breaking Federal Law, especially here in Houston, where the air's pretty bad to begin with.

and Monte, I'm pretty sure. You've been on here longer than I, so you probably know that I've answered this question a few times already, and everytime I did, I went out to the garage to check, b/c I don't like lookin' like a chump for all the internet to see. Of course, now I've sold and shipped my stock exhaust on Ebay, so I can't check now. Buff still has his, maybe he can double check for us?

yeah, no problem Corny... I'm having a shop take a look at my system tomorrow anyway, so I'll see what they have to say. Since I don't plan on doing any other mods really, (just have my CAI and tune), I can probably get away with just doing mufflers and tips - unless he suggests bigger dia. pipe as well, we'll see. gonna keep the resonator though, and still not sure about the u-bend, if it's really worth the hassle of taking that out or not.
