I have not dyno'd my car but I don't think my Dansk exhaust added much power after the install. It sounds great though. I installed the cheap $100 headers the other day (excellent quality) and the whole system sounds much better now with less resonance (not that I had much to begin with). However, I certianly feel like I lost low end torque after the installation of the headers. I have't had a chance to let it rip yet but the sound is truly amazing at higher RPMs. Do you guys think a chip would help or would it just be more money down the drain? I don't smind pending money on my setup thus far as I like the look of the stainless exhaust and headers as well as the sound very much. I just don't want to spend money on a supposedly performance mod if I am not really going to gain any real performance from it. At least the other stuff has some cosmetic appeal.

The upgrade that I like the most so far are my Eibach lowering springs.
