well i got the car for 6300 woot woot
anyway i wanted to ask, right now it has a COI and i wanted to know if anyone had any problems with things getting in it, or dust, because everyone around here just says to get the short ram intake , but i dont really understand why because how would things get in if there is a filter, also with which do you get more power from?
ill post some pics of it soon

That's just if you get heavy rain and there is potential you might drive through a deep puddle it can suck up water and hydro-lock your engine, yes even with the filter on.
Cold air usually translates into better power, but lately there is alot of emphasis on the air horn or funnel shape being at the end where the filter is regardless of whether it's cai or short ram, to smooth the flow and speed it up as it enters the pipe. Look up the RS Akimoto funnel ram to see that.

What do you guys think of Flowmaster's 60 Series Delta Flow Muffler? I can get the direct fit version new for $150. Is this a good deal? I don't want it to be too loud, just a nice purr. If this isn't the best choice than what other options are there? I would prefer something that is a factory replacement that bolts on since I have no welding skills or tools.

I haven't heard them so don't know what it sounds like, but if you can get that exact piece in the link for only $150 that seems like a deal and should be direct bolt-on. If you get only a muffler/tip you will have to have welding done to it. Definitely get something that is at least 1 complete section of the exhaust. In that picture is what we call an "axle-back".

Did some more searching around and it looks like nobody likes the flowmasters on imports.
Does anyone know of any nice and quiet performance exhausts that are a decent price?
