If I was you I'd go with long tube headers, they won't throw a check engine light if installed properly. If that is to hardcore for you, high flow cats or test pipes are the way to go. You are retaining the stock cats and they are very restrictive. It still won't give you the low end grunt but if you don't feel the power...well you aren't driving her correctly.

Nismo? Thanks for the advice, but..... Nah. This baby is growing on me more each day. Just traveled 300 miles from the east coast of England to Wales. Had lots of fun. This car, with its mods, is a keeper.
