Default Cold air intake and Exhaust

I have a stock 05 Gt and im lookin to change the breathing of the car first, I was wondering What the best intakes are for the car, and what exhaust system seems to do the best on the mustang, i want a healthy noise what is the best things to buy to get that? Oh yea and whats better the x-pipe or the h on a mustang ive heard alot and im not sure so if any one knows it has to be on here.

Thank you to any replies.

I got an airaid inlet system for mine with a throtle body spacer to and think its good, as for exhust jba long headers and zero exhust is making the rest as i live in the uk its easyer that way.

I am running JLT II intake, JBA lontubes with o/r H to bassani street mufflers, and I have zero complaints. It is a little on the loud side, but its very healthy sounding. JBA headers are the way to go imo

CAI: JLT, C&L, Steeda will all get around the same gains, JLT is cheapest

exhaust: ARH, kooks LT's are good
h or x pipe it depends on your axleback what will sound good
axle back depends what you want to hear i like stingers, mac, boomtubes, pypes mid mufflers, it's subjective what you like.

I'm running a C&L Street intake, Steeda billet CMCV delete plates, and a Pypes O/R X-pipe. The sound from the O/R X-pipe + stock mufflers isn't the best but it's not that bad. I don't have the money for long tubes right now.
