2013 GT Premium Upgrades
So I am about to start upgrading my GT Premium and wanted to get some feedback on the parts I am thinking of going with. It's a daily drive / show car had to have another Mustang while I restored my 72 Mach1 but I just can't help not upgrading this Mustang just a bit.
First things first I want to put on the Boss 302 Intake and AirRaid Cold Air Intake.

So I was not really sure about headers to go with, I am looking for something that's going to make it loud I don't do quiet Mustangs. However I do want to go with Pypes Pype-Bomb Super System Catback Exhaust and the Pypes Off-Road Shorty X-pipe.

Boss intake is nice.
Airraid is an OK intake. I personally went with C&L Racer and am very happy with it.
Pype-bombs are loud, with cats. My catless setup with stock manifolds and ORH is very loud, even with borla stingers that are far more of a muffler than the pype-bomb. I wouldn't expect this to sound very good, imo. Lots of trumpeting, popping, and drone.
Offroad X is def a great upgrade so long as you don't get emissions testing in your area.
You are definitely missing the biggest gaining thing when talking basic mods. A TUNE! You'll grab more from a tune than slapping on LT's. AND, you'll need one for the LTs, cattless X, and CAI. But, kiss your warranty goodbye. They have a flash counter in the '11+ PCMs and will know you put an aftermarket tune on.
Good luck! Welcome to modding!

Yeah I did plan on giving it a performance tune? Would they still know though if I save the factory tune an put it back....
But as far as a nice setup for headers what would you recommend going with. I was looking at maybe putting on Pypes long tube headers to complete the Pypes system, but I am open to suggestions.
I do get emissions testing here actually and they are pretty extreme with it. So offroad xpipe sounds like it could be a bad idea. In fact I am not really 100% sure of the difference between them.
