Default Performance Help

I been thinking about upgrading the performance on my mustang, since ive upgraded the looks enough already, i dont really want to do the whole exhaust thing, however i do want to add just one more performance package...i was thinking about going with "option C" at rpmoutlet.com the 42% pullies and the diablosport tuner, i just need to know wether or not its a good idea to get that option without having a good exhaust...?

exhaust is a good upgrade....makes your car look better and it makes it sound/perform better. With the aftermarket exhaust your car can breathe alot easier. Pullies are a good bolt-on...your stang 5spd or auto?

So basically you want a sleeper??? Well im not 100% on this but I would almost certainly assume with alot of performance upgrades that they wont do to much without a good breather exhaust system. What you could do is have turn downs where you cant even see the tail pipes, there a little under the rear bumper. Like old 5.0s
