Exhaust Poll

Repost from my pictures thread

I have an intake, and now I'm looking to replace my stock exhaust, engine back.
I'm just wondering where to start,
Should I replace my stocker manifold with the Pacesetter Ceramic Header?
-or-
Replace my exhaust tubing with a Pacesetter Monza Catback?

Funds are a strict issue and Pacesetter is all i can afford, so please don't bash. The benefits of the Header are more horses, and for the cat-back is better sound. Either way, I will end up getting both systems, its just a question of what I get first

i say cat-back, it seems to compliment the car power wise with an intake.

if you end up going to a header, i would make sure you dig up the extra funds for a ceramic coated one.

I said cat-back because putting a header on will bring a higher flow of exhaust out initially but will just slowed down by the rest of the exhaust system from being smaller in diameter.

Also, I am biased cause I did it that way.

Thanks for the input, I'm gonna need some jack stands before i do my Cat-Back because I do all my work myself. I don't need no stinkin' garage to install my parts
