Need suggestions:)

Need some suggestions as to which mods I should get first on my ss. Got a couple of ideas already, but any suggestions would much appreciated. Also, I which exhaust system is the best because I've heard a lot of mixed opinions. Thanks

So many opinions will pop up. But I would recommend a CAI air intake and Stainless Works Retro Chambered Exhaust. A short throw shifter is another good option. So many choices though! Have fun!

Probably apex catch can first,
Then CAI
Then long tube headers
Then cam and tune
Then gears
At least that's how I'm doing it
My car has the dual mode exhaust that I'm very happy about, I actually just did the catch can very recently but looking back I would have done it first had I known how much oil vapour it catches

Kooks are great bang for the buck if you want to go the premium header route(I mean cost). You will really love them. Not sure if you are M6 or A6, but if you are M6 the Stainless Power Retro Exhaust is #1 in my book for aftermarket exhaust. That being said, considering the cost I would go another route...maybe a used NPP from the classifieds.
