Default exhaust vs. tuner?

So, should I get the magnapacks or a tuner for my 02 GT? It's an auto which is the only reason I want the tuner. Eventually, (3 or 4 mods from now) I'll be getting 4.10's or 4.30's. But not just yet. I want an exhaust atleast first. I have the money for both now, but I would probally hold off until spring to get the exhaust because it's cold, and I really don't feel like working on the stang in the cold. Opinions?

get a tuner now then exhaust when it heats up a bit. tuner you can firm up those shifts. You will probably have more fun with that for a while then when it warms up you can get exhaust and have even more fun

Come on its not that cold if you have a garage. I just put my Magnapacks on yesterday and I love them. But i do agree, a tuner would be a better choice for you car at this time. You will love the sound of the magnapacks though.

If you are gonna buy both anyways, and it's only a matter of which you want to buy first, BUY THE MAGNAPACKS! It'll be waaaay more satisfying than a tuner
