recommended performance upgrades for gt2?

looking to upgrade the gt2 while we save up for the lambo.

here are my thoughts:
Chip - which one?
Full Exhaust - which one? we want one that isnt race car loud, but a nice upgrade over sound.
Intake - which one? Sharky's?
wheels - probably champions

I want to have a stock reliable car, so i'm not lookign to make 600 hp. I just want a somewhat faster and better sounding gt2. let me know what you guys think i should do. Obviously those that actually have first hand experience with these mods could probably help me the most. thanks!

I don't have a GT2 but I would go with Fabspeed moderate and a stage 2 GIAC chip.

Get the GIAC program with flashloader and a Europipe or Cargraphic exhaust.

i was told by a few people that the GIAC software is bulletproof. is this true? Now i need to find the cheapest place to buy the flashloader and stg 2 software with the intake and europipe... any suggestions?

Fly sharky out to do the reflash and intake install. You can entice him by promising him a trip to seaworld to visit family members. You can get the europipe installed anywhere. I would suggest doing the 100 cell cats at the same time.

let me ask you guys this... i was quoted 4100 for the evo exhaust and 5100 for the europipe. would i save money by jsut cutting the cat out altogether and probably increase power too? Would it be unbearably loud?
