Default all-around exhaust-engine etc. question

okay, im getting my obx exhaust/muffler installed. im pretty much a newbie here so i just want to know if im going to feel a change with my car, while driving or the noise or anything...

also, what are other things that could change performance/etc in the car?
like changing plug wires or the spark plugs. stuff like that.
changing the headers im sure would be cool, but wouldnt it void the warranty?
my car is pretty much stock, but i want to change some things to make the "driving experience" much nicer. if you guys know what i mean.

also, i have stock tires currently, what size are those? 13, 14 or 15? thank you for all your answers.

Hey, OBX HF02,... I have the HF01,... it's gonna get louder!
If you get catback, it will be even louder, and in the cabin as well.

It's a little loud,... but it's settling down, J@WS01's settled down quite a bit,

Waiting for mine to do the same (hopefully)
Getting a J@WS01 Special CAI installed soon, once the piping comes in.

Can't wait!

KayJai, some of those pics are only half pics. When did you guys go to Birds Hill park? I like your exhaust better then Jaws, looks sharper (literally). Dont you think you need a picture of a "REAL" exhaust system though, like my nice straight pipe, lol I got some pics for your page.
