Is there going to be difference whether I chip first before exhaust or get an exhaust
 
first then get chipped? Or does it even matter since there is no differnce in program.

I think Im ready to take the plung but can only afford one or the other for now.

Any input would help : )

TIA

A chip is pretty much worthless as far as gains without full exhaust.

disagree

chip is cheaper. But exhaust is the best mod. (full exhaust)
 
Exhaust mod gives you >. Its more noticable.

I don't think it really matters. But if you can do one now, I would say exhaust
 
as you will enjoy it more everyday with the sound.
Btw, are you doing catback only or full exhaust? if catback I think the main benefit will be a very nice rumbling sound.
The chip does add something, but it is more subtle and you tend to get used to it and forget about it.
Also, I was told that the chip performs better with the hyperflow, but not sure about it, you should check.
Which exhaust and chip are you thinking of doing?

This might only be the case with OCT. I asked the same question and others had good gains without DP
 
or even full exhaust.

I did just a chip first, I just put my exhaust on yesterday,
 
Didn't do downpipes, but neither of them will you notice power, I would do the exhaust first it is the best upgrade. They only thing about doing an exhaust in November in the north is it is cold to have the windows down to listen to it.

Actaully, I forgot to add I already have the hyperflow. I was thinking of getting 2 resonator AWE
 
CB. No fullback for me.. at least not for awhile. As far as chip is concern, I dont know which one yet. I tried APR during their free trial at waterfest and it seems pretty nice. I feel better throttle response but Im leaning towards REVO.

i agree...
 
chip is cheaper but is used to get the max performance out of your other mods like full exhaust of whatever.

not true, esp on this NA beast
