My hawk is mostly stock with the exception of the 4.10 rear-end and K&N filter. I want to get exhaust but I can't decide what to do. I can get the Corsa exhaust and a new lid or I could go with a cheaper muffler like the Hooker and get headers. What should I do with only $800 to spend?

 

i would go with a lid a kn really doesn't do all that much, and a lid would def would. If you don't want a lid you could always get the fipk they are a little more expensive but also work. Replace the stock lid with the restrictive baffles get ur self a lid that my $.10

 

So should I go with a new lid and the corsa exhaust? I've heard a lot of people complaining about their corsa rattling. Would it be possible to get headers, a lid, and hooker exhaust with only $800?

 

You could get hooker headers, hooker catback, and a lid for about $1000 assuming you do all the work.

 

I met a guy at the car show tonight who is going to sell me the clear air lid off of his 2001 Camaro SS for $50. What sort of gains can I expect from hooker headers and what should I go with long tubes vs short tubes and all that sort of thing?
