Used injen intake-$170
Megan muffler $80
Custom exhaust 2.25 replaced with 2.5in and muffler install $80
ECM tune-Free

So about $330 as far as performance

if you decide to put ne thing on go with a corsa ehaust...its expensive but its not cheap like some other exhaust systems...and look into a cai..possibly injen or K&N ..if they ever make one...

i got ripped off i had a muffler put on a generic one, but i think it sounds awesome, think its called a "turbo" maybe that the brand idk but i wanted something just to give it some sound, i have had alot of compliments tho, but i spent 174 or something around that to have it put on...
