Isay get the car first 
With Longtubes your going to want a new tune. Not for sure if they will have one out for the 2008.
Check out a vendor on here and spend that money and you will get alot more for your buck.
Intake tune.
longtube and x pipe
delete plates/pullies.
Then get some nice tires.

headers - $900
catted x-pipe - $350
SLP powerflo exhaust - $500
UDPs - $200
C&L intake w/SCT tuner - $650
Thats $2600 if you buy the stuff seperately. And I just used Brenspeed and SLPonline for these prices. I'm sure you can get Long tubes for cheaper than $900 and I'm sure the Powerflo exhaust and catted x-pipe can be had for cheaper aswell. I would buy sepearate with the brands you want. And your getting an 08, I didnt know they were out yet, when are you taking delivery of it?

I don't know what the changes are for the 08 model compared to the 07, but I know with the 07 in the beginning, a lot of things were (are) different. For instance just the tuner is different compared to those for the 05-06 models. If I were you, just wait 'till you get the car and be sure to ask if everything will be ok for the 08 model...
