Yes! If I were you, I'd do the Kooks catted H-pipe with their side pipes, and Borla OTA pipes to mate up to your axlebacks. That would give you another 30% of volume. At least.

The Kooks side pipes sound like heaven, I love them! If it wasn't so **** cold and winter time I would take them off and ship them to you to try out. I absolutely love mine! MRT sells an H-pipe that will work with your stock cats or cat delete pipes and will mate up to the Boss side exhaust pipes.

We'll see. Do you still need the tune for the catted pipes? I love my boss side pipes and I put so much into getting them, I don't think I could ever let them go. Although they may be worth a decent amount, as rare as they are.

HA! How much of a difference do the kooks side pipes make compared to the stock ones? Are they a lot louder? I saw some used ones over on SVT for $300 but they were already sold (not like I have the money now anyways). Maybe I'll do some OTA pipes come summer. Need to figure out tires first. Hoping to have them on by end of march.

And the wheels may get here even earlier. Expected delivery date is thursday! Although, I've heard tons of horror stories regarding fedex lately.

You don't need a tune with the HF cats - we dyno'd my car before and after. The cats alone added 12whp and about the same torque. But the tune will get the most out of them.

Oh yeah, way louder! Like when you step on the gas next to a concrete barrier the best way I can describe it is NASCAR loud. This was my car with the side pipes only at part throttle just lolly gagging around town.

Ok, so the pipes were still for sale on SVTP. I got them for $285 shipped. Now I really need to stop!

So jealous. I always wanted to add those and get Kooks LTs, but couldn't afford all that. I think I'll be plenty loud with the SPs and my current setup

From what I remember, yours sounds pretty darn good. Can't imagine how awesome it'll be with the LTs.

Wheels are here!! Gloss gunmetal DF5s. 20x8.5 and 20x10. Love the finish on these. The color changes from a dark silver to almost black depending on the light. I'll try to get some better pics tomorrow.

That is a killer deal! I think that was my favorite mod I did to my car!

Gonna need some recommendations on tires as well. Thinking either Cooper RS3-S or Mickey Thompson Sport Comps. Not sure on sizes either but I'd love 305s out back.

They're essentially the same tire, but the MTs are a softer compound (supposedly).

That's what I've read.
