Which is better for next Mod

Okay, I am at a crossroad in a decision of my next low cost mod under ($600) and in need of some thoughts.

I want to either replace the exhaust system or do the air intake. In either case its something I want to do myself so ease of installation is perferred.

Any information that will help me make a decision would be great. They both are going to get done but I want to know which one has a better return since the next one will be a couple of months away.

Thanks
Chris C

Re: Which is better for next Mod

intake will be an easier install but the exhaust would be my first choice. You already have a CAI stock.

Re: Which is better for next Mod

If you look around a bit you might be able to do both for ~$600.

I'd do the exhaust first as well though.
