Congrats on your new baby. There is the BTG flow through exhaust from PT Tuning. There are the Stage 1 and Stage 2 (early next year) upgrades though there may or may not be warranty issues. If you are staying stock or going to only Stage 1 then the BTG exhaust will be fine. If you are going to Stage 2 then you will need a 2 1/2" catback exhaust and the BTG exhaust is only 2 1/4". As for cold air intakes you are still sucking in engine heat. I have a 2" hose running from the opening next to the driver's side fog light up to the fenderwell and this provides a lot of cold air, a lot more than stock. The experts say to save your money because the stock air box and a K&N drop in air filter do as good of a job. I'm running a stock air box right now, though it is modified and has a K&N drop in filter. I have run with an intake made by a friend in Florida that looked really cool and worked great. Of course if you go faster then you want to improve handling by lowering it, adding aftermarket sway bars, Koni shocks and a strut bar. Just read what others have done on this great forum and I guarantee your wallet will be thin, but on your face will be a big grin. Mod fever is upon you. [?]
