Exactly. My wife doesn't know I bought a blower, and she's not pissed about it at all.

I have the rotofab I'd sell cheap if you change your mind and want to save some.

I agree with Dean. I was going to respond the exact same way. I've got a K&N filter for the stock box used less than 100 miles before I bought my CAI. (Volant with Donaldson Power Core dry filter). It's yours for $20+Shipping. I have a V2 MRT and it is the one thing I wouldn't compromise on. MRT gave me a 5% discount for being a Chicago Gen 5 Camrao club member. Picked it up in Michigan and saved on shipping. Real easy to install. Used car jacks in the driveway. Borrow a Sawsall with metal blades to get the old mufflers off. The clamps that come with the new mufflers are beefy. Less than 45 minh install.

Still thinking MRT 2.0 and CAI, but if I'm going to blow the budget and piss off the wife why not go cat back and get some better performance gains. What cat back is giving the LFX the most HP gains?

Wife won't kill you if you can save $110 with a page deal. If your wife is anything like mine, the most terrifying words are "you won't believe how much I saved today!"

There isn't any real performance advantage to going with a cat back. Despite sounding like crap, these factory systems flow very well. Any exhaust modification behind the cats is for sound and weight reduction.
