Ive been lookin at exhaust systems but i havent been able to decide on one. Anybody got any suggestions on systems that provide performance (if u can say that a simple exhaust gives performance) as well as some sweet sweet style
?
Also wat is a HPDE?

Go with a decent header with a 2.5" collector and aftermarket catalytic first... bolting on an expensive exhaust to the stock header/cat wont give you anything more than a louder exhaust note.

Yea ive heard good things too. Especially the rm-01a exhaust. Problem is i cant find anyone who sells anything other then the power getter. Any help on that one?

That is true too.
As far as getting the rm-01a..........http://www.hogens.com/showpart.php?id=007
There are quite a few places that sell it. Just go to Yahoo and type in "Fujitsubo rm-01a" You'll get some sites that sell it

No most "full" exhaust systems are Cat-Back which is everything from the Cat-Back. You can buy a Test pipe or a High flow cat as well

If you want Fujitsubo try Jack or Bob P1 auto (look at my sign), Mike at IPS racing http://www.ipsracing.com/ and David at R&D Motorsports http://www.randdmotorsports.com/ and see if they can get it. If not try Leo at JDM spec performance http://www.jdmspecperf.com/.
But if I would you I'll save the money and keep the car stock and go to HPDE. There is nothing wrong with a stock car.

OK so i checked out the site with the Fujitsubo RM-01A and it looked sweet so i emailed Hogan to get more info, and he said that since its JDM spec i would have to shorten the pipe by 7 inches!!! 
Anybody know anything bout that?

Eh?
Means the pipe is too long. Either cut it to fit, or get a shorter cat.
Oh yeah, do the driving schools thing instead of spending money on bling. You'll enjoy the car more that way.

I couldnt agree more.....run one event, and you'll know exactly what you need, and all your wants will be out the window...(jdm bling applies here)
