    you need to ditch the suckmasters..they flow like shit..pick up a corsa or magnaflow..or even better a whole catback system..lts will make it very raspy and loud..especially at wot. with a header and cat back tune the headers can net you ups of 20+ hp

    Which Flowmaster do you have? The 2.5" or the 3" outlet? The 3" will be adequite and it will sound pretty good! The 2.5" will flow bad!

    yeah unless you tune yourself ill be wort it. other wise too expensive. i dyno'd it but no tune can't afford.

    headers and ory was my first mod did'n tune until i install cam and heads. your prolly right about gaining more hp n tq but not a big difference. if im him i would purchase a cam for the price of the tune.

    @ suckmasters

    Your car will be quite a bit louder now. I would ditch the current muffler like Shady said and find something else that will flow better for you.

    Ditch the muffler all together. My car sounded sick when i installed Pacestter LTs and ORY with no muffler. Since then i have changed heads, cam, and intake manifold. Now, i am getting the tune. But if you don't have anymore changes like this in mind, go ahead and get the tune. My car was running rich after the exhaust change because i didnt tune it.
