go with the suspension. The only reason to have the exhaust is looks and sound. BTW, I have the Comptech exhaust. I also have the Comptech springs. Like the springs just a little bit more.

Not enough to matter. You would likely have way more fun with some good cheap springs, like H&R or Eibach's and match them up with a CAI or Comptech ICE box and you will have way more enjoyment then an exhaust.

I'd go with suspension. Something about the wheel gap that really irks me, which is why I got my baby lowered within a month or taking delivery.

i was thinking the same thing but i decided to get an exhaust, and bought a Tanabe super hyper medallion from TRT Auto Tech in Queens, theyre a pretty decent wholesaler and i got one unused/open box for $650-, it sounds awesome, the low end response seems somewhat increased but i'd say if ure looking bang for buck go injen RD CAI, and eibach pro kit springs...both are really good parts and pretty easy to install ureself.IMO
