i was wondering what everyone thought about me upgrading my 99 em1 exhaust with a type r exhaust, from the header back to the axel-back. it seems like i can get everything for fairly inexpensive compared to other aftermarket parts. i would eventually like to upgrade the cams and valvetrain as well, but all in time. any input would help. thanks.

i'd say its not worth it. it won't give you more than about 1 hp increase. save up a little more money for an aftermarket exhaust instead.

yeah i'd go with a 2 1/4 mandrel bent cat-back system.....in the end, you'll be glad you did

i went through 4 different EXHAUST SYSTEMS before i antied up and bought my N1 catback.....i DO NOT regret paying the extra $$ for an aftermarket catback

cool, thanks for the input. what would you guys recommend? 2 1/4 all the way back, or 2 1/2 custom? im in college, so im obviously on a budget
