Suspension VS. Custom Exhaust System........what should I get

Should I get a suspension setup or go with an exhaust system from Kteller8 (2.5" mandrel bent piping/carsound cat/es oval style muffler). If not any of those, what is the best mod to get the most power from?

I'm just talking about getting it lower with good handling. It's a daily driver and I'm not going out for autox anytime soon

Plus, I have stock exhaust right now. It sounds pretty scratchy when you hit the pedal. It's not intimidating at all

I'd say suspension dude, it'll make your car more fun to drive. You're not gonna notice a difference with the exhaust, aside from aurally and some butt-dynos maybe...

Err, I don't know about anyone else, but exhaust noises don't intimidate me dude, engine noises do however; like grumbling lumpy-cam noises, or high-pitched whining SC noises, or the "Psshht!" noise I can't identify, but that makes me immediately want to change lanes...
