Exhaust and Air Intake help!

[hamidun9]

I have a 95' Eclipse GS n/a and I was wondering if this exhaust and header system is decent or not for my car. (Keep in mind this car is COMPLETELY bone stock)

Exhaust: STAINLESS STEEL CAT BACK CATBACK EXHAUST SYSTEM+HEADER 95-99 ECLIPSE TALON NT | eBay

Also, I had another question regarding air intakes. I was wondering if the piping for the GS-Ts would be the same as the GS's? I was planning on buying an air intake pipe and filter (filter from K&N) from and GS-t but am hesitate to buy ### I understand the GS-T's have turbos.

If you can let me know your input on both these things, it'd be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks

Yeah you can't use the gst intake on a 420a motor they sit on opposite sides.

Darn it. You think I could at least use the K&N filter? And if that's a yes, any recommendations on decent intake pipes?

A pipe is a pipe to me, just try to keep away as much as possible from the exhaust manifold. I do not see what the difference is bewteen $50-$400 CAI. Go to a "local autoparts store" & pick one up.

As for an "Exhaust System", an "Ebay" one is fine, again no need to go big until later power stages.

dont buy ebay systems, im new here to all this dsm not gonna lie been askin some stupid shit learning all this, but heres my 2cents. i ordered the complete cat back system from "option racing" off of ebay. everyone here will tell you, you pay for what ya get is the truth with most ebay items. most of these ebay systems ## looking at are cheaply made an wont last you in the long run. that header is not anything performance enhancing that you would expect. ive done alot of research on these types an they all usually lead back to one company that gets bad reviews,lousy customer service an they will bullshit you around their warranty....if i were you an you want good quality products wait an save up your money for something better "megan racing" is a good quality system good finish the welds look really good an the sound i think is clean deep an is worth the money. that option racing system btw i returned after i got done going through it.

As stated before for intake and exhaust pipe is pipe. Hell thats how I made my custom CAI, which I then just added a K&N filter.
