I would try improve on that kit first get a good feed of cool air/heatshield it from rest of engine etc or look at a raceland enclosed maybe. then move on and get a good exhaust system with decat 4-1/4-2-1 mani. have you done any other performance mods besides the pipercross filter?

When i bought the car it came with i think its called "savage" back box. i had to get the centre pipe fixed as there was a hole in the original. thats about all thats been done.

maybe look at getting a diff backbox if you like it I'd stick with it though.

Remove the centre silencer/cat converter etc.

Also look at stripping the interior out the car to save weight. best way of increasing acceleration/braking/handling for virtually no money at all :y:
