Well, you did the 2 mods that we say NOT to do first, but it's not the end of the world, and they can/will be useful later. The first mods should be exhaust, mbc, and tune. Then, if necessary, you get an aftermarket BOV, depending on the boost you run. At least you recirculated your Greddy, though, so that's good. The intake is not needed at all, and you will need a tune to make it run right (also to get good power out of it).

Intake should be the last thing on your list .. If you havent already - a Boost Gauge followed by a MBC ... Then work your way completing your TBE... and depending on your goals a fuel pump and a flash ...

There is no "right" path - but a intake shouldnt be your first mod .. the stock airbox is good for up to anywhere from 350-400whp before it becomes a bottleneck ...

I would've saved it for a TBE, but oh well....since you have already ordered a intake, it should be fine....

Best exhaust probably is the one made by...SEARCH!!! No it's not a company, I can't tell you what's the best but if you do a search you will find tons of posts, reviews, discussions and opinions...read up and make your own decision otherwise you may be dissappointed if you go with the first thing someone recommends.

I thought the best exhaust was the most expensive, full Ti with a diamond encrusted 5 inch tip?
