you have an 04 so there is no de- snork needed. a high flow air filter is about all you need there. there is a lot to be gained with the delete pipes. first is a good bump in power , you will loose a good 30 pounds of weight and with the cats gone it makes working under the car much easier because of all the extra room and easy removal . don't forget you also get a more porsche like exhaust sound since you already have the factory sport muffler.
