$5,000 to spend

Would $5,000 get me a tune, cam kit (springs, chain, etc), headers, and an exhaust installed? Can it be done on that budget?

Be careful what exhaust you use in combination with headers.

Don't know how loud you want to get, but you can attract attention really quickly If you're not careful

I have straight pipes... kinda eh.

It's really loud, don't get me wrong, but it's not very deep. It's pretty raspy...

When I had no LT headers and only muffler delete they sounded GREAT.

But then I got LT headers with just muffler delete (straight pipes) and yeah they're definitely a lot louder... but at WOT they SCREAM... but really raspy.

I'm considering either Corsa, Borla Atak, Stainless works retro chambered system or... yeah either those 3 lol.

Still have not decided.

Noweeds exhaust diverters and headers will give you the loudest. I have yet to hear something louder than that. Click a button and you can go back to stock sound so the cops wont bother you.
