I love my setup. I have Mac duals with a highflow cated x-pipe and pacesetter shorties. But If I had to change one thing I would get long tubes, it would sound a whole bunch better. Listen to deahawks exauhst clips if you want an idea of how it sounds. Oh and I wouldn't bother with a new cam shaft unless you serious about spending some money and have some serious work done to your engine, at least that's what I've found.

Can't go wrong with long tubes but I'm pretty biased tho lol.
I have Mac long tubes, Mac o/r h pipe and flow 40s.
Only thing I have thought about changing was the mid pipe to something with high flow cats.
A cam will sound very good with the long tubes but can be pricey unless you can do the work or have some friends that can.

stay away from the black pacesetter headers, Ive found that the price is good, but the quality isnt.. after they get hot, the paint starts coming right off.. Mac long tubes will be worth it over all.. go with a high flow catted mid pipe, and your choice of mufflers..

okay thanks guys! im gonna go with the MAC long tubes, i was think an off road Xpipe but im not sure which yet, and ive got flow 40's on now. but when it comes to camming it, ive got a cam in mind through comp cams but what else should be upgraded while everything is torn apart... nothing thats toooo costly
