Default what would you buy first?

Ive decided im going to add a AEM CAI, Corsa performance exhaust, and doug thorley headers to my truck. i will get the intake first because it is the cheapest. what should i get next, the headers or exhaust? i would like to get the exhaust so my v8 sounds more like a v8 but im really likeing the gains the doug thorley headers offer. help me decide!!

i dont have this vehicle yet but i would go with exhaust first because than you have that nice sound to go with that intake and also you have plenty of HP already to whoop all sorts of butt so might as well make it sound good when you do

IMO you should wait and do the most expensive things first and then go to the cheaper ones...I've done quite a few mods to my truck and wish I would've just started with the expensive ones because intake, exhaust, grills, lights, etc is all cheap compared to a lift, rims, tires, etc. JMHO...Oh also the more expensive mods keep you satisfied for longer than the cheaper ones...so you get a little more time to enjoy your mod before you get the itch for the next one. So yea...start with rims, tires, lift which will be sweet and then do the cheap and easy stuff.

Go with the Corsa first, there is a group buy up till Friday thatwill knock out one of the more expensive things on the list first. I'm considering going deep into the dog house on this one. Wifey is saying no way ( just spent 600 on LineX last month )
