Hmm..... I'm thinking of going with a 3" down pipe and a custom 3" cat back, that spits into 2 1/2" pipe after the split. But, what kind of mufflers???
I already flipped my mount and I didn't notice a difference so maybe I'll give a ZZP mount a try.
A cat back, tune, and intake would be great! But I think I'll need some more green
How do you guy's feel about shift kits?

K&N Intake- $200
ZZP Shift Kit + Dex VI- $70
HPTuners- $500
3800Perf. Motor mounts- $30
Total= $800
Then I would do the complete 3" DP and cat back system. But there is no way I would order a cat back system when you can always find a good exhaust shop that will do a custom bent cat back with mufflers/tips of your choice for maybe $350-400.
That is what I would do.

I like what you listed Compg. I'll consider these mods but I'll need to get a lap top for the HP tuner software. I might go with a Diablo tuner instead, once we're able to tap into the transmission. Does anyone know when this is supposed to happen?

You can get a decent laptop that will run the HPTuner at a pawn shop for about $200 if that is all your gonna use it for then thats a great deal. The only downside with the Diablo is if they ever get the tranny adjustments out you will still be able to do more with the HPTuners and help other people out the the HPTuner also. You should also think about the rocker/spring/pushrod mods. For all it will be about $600 and if you get non-adjustable rockers then install is a breeze and yo can pick up a good 15-20 WHP on the topside where we can always have some help. But if you can't tell the mod bug has bitten me and everything adds up really quick. That's why the wife won't let me mod the GXP too much because she knows that I can't stop
