Hello everyone. I am new here and had Some Q's!

I loved the evo X since the first moment I saw it in 08'. Now, I will be getting one in half a year or so! I am getting kinda excited and want to ask you about some "extra" aftermarket parts Ok, I was thinking about getting this: http://http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/sports-exhaust-system-mitsubishi-0810-p-113332.html
But, I don't think it will be worth the money because I've heard that changing your intercooler and upper i/c tube won't do much. Also,wanted to add a catback: http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/r...i-p-54358.html
I want to know, does this one include a muffler and tailpipe or do i have to buy that too?
I will change my intake with a AMS Polished one. (Cone shaped) Will it help much?
I will be getting a Agency Power Blow Off Valve for sure. I like the sick sound it makes
One last question, Which do you think is better, Cobb or ECU?
Thanks for any help.

Ye, I have read that. It didn't tell me much about the cobb vs ecutek.
EDIT: Also, why do people say the tires get warn out fast? Is this true? How do people put gauges on the side of the car and its like built into it from the beginning?

Cobb is probably more user friendly for someone with no experience.

DO NOT get an aftermarket BOV until you need it(Meaning around 27psi when the stock will leak), our cars do not mesh well with them, and an open element air filter ( cone filter) will let you hear the stock BOV, and I promise it will be more than enough for you.

Make sure what ever intake you get either doesn't change the stock maf housing ( I think AMS does) or you will need a tune to avoid running poorly ( If you do cobb or ECU this will be a non-issue) An example of an intake that is fine with no tune is Cobb SF as it leaves the maf housing stock.

I clicked on your link for the exhaust, didn't take me anywhere so I'm not sure.

Sorry for answering them out of order

lol link was there yesterday. Oh well. What about the fuel efficiency? xD Does it eat 5 gallons/mile more than the stock?

Here's the intake i want to add : http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/s...1-p-60179.html
Or the AMS one http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/p...i-p-54378.html

EDIT: Also fixed the catback link
