best bag for the buck

i know everyone is looking for it. ive been thinking aswell..
current mods.
-ivey tune (came with car retune needed soon $300)
-3" dc sports downpipe $220 w/cat delete
-hks filter $29
-halman $50
as always people want to do an exhaust. i really dont. the 2.5" catback seems like enough to me and is not loud. next step i was thinking of going watermeth snows stage II kit..get the boost up a little safer with the meth. let me know what you guys think

I would go aquamist, and possibly get an actual intake.

You can always get the Apexi ws2 catback! It looks like stock and sounds like stock with just a little more rumble at wot! I have installed 3 and everyone of them have been coated black which is called NOIR! You will not regret that catback at all! It sounds like stock! With meth you just have to keep a close watch on your afr's because it will not take long to pop your motor when you have no meth spraying in!

Or properly implement the failsafe:

Meth injection is an easy way to safely get +50whp/+50wtq (give or take). Aquamist FTW!

However, considering your short mod list, there's a few other things you can do first. Ported Exhaust Manifold & SS O2 housing (mean or buschur) will get you +15whp, switching out the stock catback for an aftermarket one will prolly be 10whp or so too. IF this is an Evo8, then cams would be what I would do before any of this (+35whp/+40wtq?). If it's an IX, save it until after
