Man...choices...tough ones
I have some decisions to make in the not so distant future.
Option A: Save up for another month at least to do MAC LT's, o/r H and Americna Thunder CB
Option B: Get an o/r H and AT CB very soon and either not do LT's or wait for a while
Option C: DO H&R's, MM CC plates and S/S's in place or full exhaust
Option D: 18" (or maybe 17" because tires are way cheaper) silver or chrome FR500's
I am just torn because I want to do exhaust as a whole (long tubes, mid pipe, cat back), but I also want to spend as LITTLE money as possible. My main concerns for the time being are stance, wheels/tires, exhaust. I wish I could get aways without not buying CC's and S/S's and just doing a CB and springs for now. That would be the cheapest and most fun I think. I hate the stock stance and sound. Dammot I want it all!!!! AHHHH this has been seriously haunting me. Its literally all I think about at night lol. I want stance, sound, looks, etc. and cant stand waiting another half a year lol. Man, I am not even joking here guys, I reeeaaaalllly want exhaust, wheels/tires, and springs but dont wanna dish out the money (if I ever have enough) to to CC plates, S/S's, install for LT's, etc.

If it were me and I were cash strapped, I'd find maybe a used O/R pipe of your choice and slap that on and leave everything else stock on the exhaust. That should seriously wake the car up sound wise. I don't think you'd be disappointed. I bought my used prochamber for $80, worked like a charm, sounds amazing. LT's are just pretty big money really with install and all.

I would do full exhaust. If you do all except long tubes you''ll also have to replace your o/r h pipe with a shorty h when you do the headers. Besides... i thing the combo you have in mind with long tubes would sound absolutley sick!!!
Then again some 315's in the rear would look incredible too!!

full exhaust.
nothing souns as good as a 4.6 with full exhuast. esp a 2v 4.6. and you'll get a good increase in HP.
i usually plan out my mods. what im going to do when and how.
like this year my plan was
Get 4.10's in. ( got those a CAI and tune!)
Get a catback ( just ordered it)
Get sportlines ( working on that)
Headers ( be a while on that)
Window tint ( be a while on that too)
Priorities man.
