Yeah, you need the right tools, and know what you're doing when it comes to gears. The gears alone are around $200, and another $200-$400 for the install in general.

As far as the tune goes Sniper is good, and so is SCT imo. Nothing will beat a good custom dyno tune though.

What exhaust you have on now??? I know you said its JBA but what all parts does it consist of??? like o/r mid pipe and what style x or h??? If you want a really loud setup and you have an o/r h pipe, id look into MAC. They have a good sounding loud chambered muffler that will probably fit your needs with an o/r h. If you have a catted h/x, any of the ridiculously loud catbacks will probably work for you...such as the SSS terminator, SLP LM1's or LM2's, Borla Stingers, Magnapacks, or just glasspacks. Dont like most of the ones just stated but they will work for you. With an o/r x pipe, I would say you will want like the SLP LM1's or LM2's, Stingers, Magnapacks, terminators. But mind you you will have assloads of rasp...like to the point where people probably wont compliment you on how your car sounds...probably say that your car sounds like its farting. For me, I have an o/r x pipe and flowmasters. Now i dont like some characteristics of it but overall its a good sounding exhaust for me. My ultimate exhaust would be Longtubes, catted x pipe, and SLP LM1's. Sounds the best to me. But its all in what you want. You tell us what kinda loud sound youre looking for and we can help you from there.

I kinda agree. I'm really debating about putting my o/r H back on in place of my prochamber. But the prochamber quietens the car down to justttt loud enough, without echoing off cars and buildings all around me..

(i might throw it back on with the vortech... because then it will be loud AND fast haha)

It muffles the tone too much...especially with the cam. You cant hear the cam hit as much with the p/c because of the packing in it acting like another muffler. Prochamber without cams = awesome!!! With cams...not so much. Just my opinion though.
