Go with an X pipe. Not worth it otherwise.

sounding like a good idea. so now where do i find a cheap X pipe and the pipes that lead from it to the mufflers? what about the cat converter. does it stay or go?

Well CA has strict emissions control I have heard, so the cats must stay on. You can find pretty much anything on american muscle.

Can buy a complete kit at NewTakeOff.com for a very reasonable price! Highly recommended!

Why not? You don't gain anything from an X pipe.

not much power gain from duals if you've already put a good muffler on it. But I imagine the sound will make you think you're going faster

Yes, the true duals is a huge bonus. The sound is way better than a Y pipe. I am hoping to be getting some soon.
