Intake and Exhaust Combo?

ok so i have looked through lots of threads so far, got a good idea on starting mods/tunes, but im just curious for the vets and ne1 else who is over my head in modding... do you know or prefer any specific CAI and Exhaust together for performance, I.E., Injen CAI w/ a DC exhaust set up.... or do you just go for mixed pleasures and whichever fits best w/ your other tunes?

Injen intake, Vibrant header/downpipe, Magnaflow cat back = Awesome high quality setup.

IMO one of the best exhaust for the sounds and performance would be the gmpp touring cat back. and CAI injen, KN, AEM are all about the same...

Intake-wise I'd go with Injen. If you want a 3" I'd go with OTTP's.

Exhaust-wise I've had the Hahn and GMPP Performance and I like them both. Both sound similar and I honestly didn't notice a big difference between the two. Only difference is the diameter of the exhaust.

i hear good things about injen when it comes to intakes but people have good results with a simple drop in filter. save the money and get similar results. if your going for a cleaner look in the bay and performance i would go with Injen.

Injen has been around for over 5 years for the SS/SC dyno proven 16 HP. Went through these debates years ago, specifically for the SS/SC and vs a drop in filter. It was found a good extra 10 HP was there on the Injen over the K&N drop in. Injen has showed the best dyno increase.

i got 2.5inch with a resonator up near the cat and then straight pipe after that... sounds deeper than any brand name stuff but it gets a tad loud ...

magnaflow is only good for v8's... i've heard v6's even with it that sounded like ****
