Hey guys, new GP owner here. Wow, do I love this car! My question is..

I am thinking of getting a custom exaust put on (friends owns a muffler shop) and have a CAI on order, do I need a new PCM and Tstat or should the stock suffice? Thanks!

Got a GTP or GT? Honestly, you'll get more out of a 3" downpipe than any exhaust.

GTP. So downpipe is a better buy then exaust eh. Would I need a PCM to keep my KR down, or is the gain small enough I should be safe?

And also, I feel silly asking abit hehe, but you dont need to have a smaller pulley for a PCM do yah, and do they make a large difference?

Along with the CAI order the DP and PCM....u can just replace the stock mufflers and tips and it would sounds nice .....most people go with flowmaster on this site

Alrighty, thanks guys. Kinda doing her a peice at a time, need to pay it off before I get real silly =D
One other quick thing heh (sorry if I am being a pain :p ), with a DP, PCM and CAI, which is where I'll prolly stop for now, would I need a 180 tstat and plugs or should I be ok with what I got atm? (Stock Tstat, new set of Delco plugs)

Would the stock Delco ones be alright with the DP, CAI and PCM tho? They are pretty much brand new (week or 2 old, with like 600 km on them :p )

Good deal, thanks again guys =D. Looking good, should be able to do the 3 for under 1000CDN, which is the number I wanted.

The CAI is on order, now for the DP, I see ZZPs with a cat is 179.99, where as pyfc's was alot more, any reason or just better pricing?

And which PCM do you suggest, saying I dont wanna wire in a 'Performance' button?
