Converter will net you a bigger gain at the track over the exhaust. Then once you do that you will see another .2 or so from the better exhaust flow with the converter. Hope that helps. you'll see with these 2 choices done together .5 -.8 tenths depending on traction and your torque management settings. All of this depends on traction.

if you are new to installs, ge thte exhaust first and become familiar wit hsome othe stuff under the car while you do it. if you're already accustomed to installing items, get the converter. of course chances are you gotta get a shop to put that in anyway. A converter will yield lower times though than exhaust alone.
