Exhaust first, as you said, and frankly I would go for the tuner and CAI next. I know some CAIs say you don't need a tune, but definitely do the tune and CAI at the same time (speaking from experience). You'll be glad you did.

Added the Borla S-Types to my car, great deep sound! Watch for a used set!

If I were you I'd look at various axelback systems. If you take the muffler off you might not like the sound.

At this price, this may be worth taking a look at:

I have not heard these, but the design appears similar to other higher priced systems. You may get some drone here, or some popping on decel, but that is a pretty good price.

Are you V6 or V8?
