Whats up. I think if you have your cold air intake, the next step is usually exhaust. Thats what ive done any way. Get a nice free flow muffler, header, and maybe a high flow cat. I got my Magnaflow muffler from a local speed shop for $55 and its not a crappy fart can, i opted for a cheapy header off ebay for $100 and its a half decent header i think. No buzzing or anything and half decent welds. I didnt get a hi flow cat though...just had mine "modified" lol. They all give a pretty nice gain. Doesnt give a whole lot of hp but i think it more switches your powerband from low to mid/high rpm

Ps where abouts in canada r u?

I agree go with the exhaust system next and then go on to a upper stress bar (strut tower bar) for better handling or maybe look into fuel injectors and a chip. Thats what I plan on doing. I just got a silver 2001 Tib.

I really dont think fuel injectors are a good idea unless u have a turbo or supercharger. The stock ones are supposed to be good for around 190-220hp i belive. What type or chip are u planning on?

Yeah deffinatly exhuast. I agree about not needing injectors unless ur going turbo, even then u might not need em if you are going with a moderate boost.

Id also throw a 1.8l intake cam and upgrade your spark pulgs and wires.

Exhaust is good, but if you're thinking of hollowing out your cat, please reconsider. Import Tuner magazine did an article a few months back about HP gains with different cat options. a performance cat is one HP more than stock. No cat is one HP more than the performance cat and it is illegal. so save yourself the trouble seriously. if you want the small HP gain from the performance cat that is way smarter than hollowing out your cat.
