New to Lancers have some questions.

Hey guys, first off I want to say hello since I am new to the site. I am new to imports and new to Lancers. My girl friend just got a 09 Lancer ES Sport Octane blue with the CVT trans in it. I naturually am looking for ways to spend money on this car for her. I my self have a 2001 Pontiac Trans AM that is pretty built up. Any way I want to just do some minor work on her car to make it even more fun to drive then it already is. I think the first thing I want to do is a CAI. I searched on here and I found a couple made by rrm and they look ok but want to know if there is any more options out there for it. I like the polished one they offer and it's probably the one I'll end up getting.

After the intake I want to do a custom axle back exhaust that can be quickly removed for warranty purposes. I already have a guy that does miracle work on exhaust. He actually custom fabbed me some true duals on the TA so I know his work is top notch. I need help picking a muffler for her though. I want it quiet not loud at all. Just Slightly louder then stock and want it to sound deep as hell and no rasp. I saw rrp's bolt up one but my guy can do somthing like that for half the price. Any help as far as suggestions,pics, or sound clips would be greatly apreciated. I wish I had some pics of her car to put up but I guess it dont matter you guys know what it looks like LOL......

I have been looking at the Injen CAI, it seems to be fairly popular along with the Greddy Exhaust. I know that K&N is coming out with an intake very soon as well.

My advice is to start with a rear anti-sway bar.... IMO it will make a much bigger difference in how the car feels than a CAI or an axleback exhaust.
