    run a 3.4 and buy a 3.2 and a 3.0 to swap to when you're tuning if you need it.

    No.

    Stock cat-back flows just fine until about 350~

    Until you're making more than that, headers is all you really need.

    Shut up.

    Every douche that drives down my street with a straight pipe and wakes my damn kids up is a guy I hope awful things happen to.

    Straight piping a vehicle is needlessly loud and a massive nuisance to the people around you.

    Add cents to pipes to make them even louder.
