And don't be afraid of used exhaust stuff like headers can get them used for a lot cheaper. Look for deals and you can just about get a full bolt on car for 1500 bucks.

Im at 750 with LT's CAI gears Tune full exhaust
another 750 to go

If you want an expensive catback look for it used. I got my GMMG for 400, Borlas are around that price used as well. As far as LTs go stick with a name brand. For a stall/gears I recommend a Yank 3600/3.73s and for tires some M/Ts or if you see a lot of street time some Nitto 555Rs or NT 01s, both hook great.

GMMG FTW!!!! Got one for my old firebird for 475 with a cutout.

Dont mean to hi-jack...

What size stall is recommended with 4.10's?

Also are the Nitto 555Rs or NT 01s ok in the rain?

Man with the DR's I would just put them on when you went to the track they would last a whole lot longer and won't have to deal with getting stuck in the rain. and 4.10's are not to popular in the A4's but I would assume the same 3600-4000 would be good.
