if your going to spend $500 on your car i would seriously look at other options.
just remember... no matter what anyone says. when thye mean MORE POWER from your exhaust.. you might get 2kw more . if you keep your car clean n take out **** from the boot it might be acheaper option hehe
:ets not also forget that if you cheap out here and get used to not spending the dollars on quality parts then install a cheap/underdesigned CAI, cheap/ un proven cams.........etc....before you know it you are falling waaay behind where your power figures really should be
Remember that each part in the engine/exhaust is designed to assist in making the mst of not only itself but each other part installed as well
Cheap out if you want but when you get blown away at the drags or on cruises etc you know only to blame yourself for it
And just remember that the rest of the car requires the same attention to detail to work correctly

For example I will have finished the body/ suspension on my SOHC BG with a stock engine /exhaust shortly and I challenge ANY BG SP owners to the hills no matter how modified they are
