There are no chips for this car, so don't bother looking at any.

The J-Pipe/Down pipe is a pipe that comes directly out of your pre-cats & into the 3rd cat. It allows a better flow for the exhaust resulting in more power. However, it will bottleneck with the stock exhaust.

Used ones pop up on the black market, esp. now that the RV6 Version 3 model has come out.

As for a used CT S/C, check the black market as well. I think you can get a used one for $3-3,500?

Being that you have a type-s, there really is no supercharge out there for it. Does the CT Engineering S/C bolt onto the 3.5L engine? Yes. Is there any good way to tune it for the 3.5L engine even making it worth the install? Not that I've seen. I'm not super knowledgeable in this as I own a Base TL and haven't looked into this in great detail, but during my sifting through the topics on this forum in regards to S/C the 3.5L, there seems to have been only one guy who did it, in Connecticut, and I don't recall if anyone ever actually saw the end results of that on here.
