I know most won't agree with me but I say skip the exhaust setup and just replace the muffler. The pipes are good enough just need a better flowing/sounded muffler. I added the flopro and it sounds/flows great. It a little louder than stock and sounds great at WOT. Cost is under $200 compared to a lot more for the corsa setup. I think too many people sink lots of cash into exhaust/CAI and get very little performace for what you put into it. I would add a TC and tranny cooler. Best mods for the money because you can feel the difference it makes

I agree....the Corsa sounds great however it is pricey (That being said I HAVE both a corsa and a outlaw)

However with both of those you can get close to a 1,000 dollars not including if you go with headers. It may be more worth it on getting a dyno tune (if you are 2wd), fully built tranny, and a drop in muffler. However there was a noticable gain in throttle response (I am very discriminate) with the CAI.

$250 dollars woth? Not really because you can get a nice tune for that cash, however once those first things are done, gaining a little bit more power becomes much more expensive.

to be honest i regret putting so much into my truck in the appearance catagorie, i figure with the 8,000 i put in aftermarket stuff i could have built a damn fast truck. but i love the drop, so i say if you got enough to do all that, get your tranny set up and go for FI
