Chips are for eating.

Learn about the car before you go spending money on useless garbage like chips. CAI & tune for your biggest bang on these cars unless you go FI. After that, it's nickle and dime stuff.

Just another question. If I just replace my stock muffler with a GT takeoff, what will I get, just better sound?

No problem at all
Pretty much. No real performance gains.

Same thing with my buddy's car when I got him a pair of GT takeoffs. He's still just running a single muffler right now.

Yeah you're not going to notice any real gains from exhaust until you start reaching top-end rpm and speed, when the engine requires the bigger breathing room.
