With the buddy club exhaust, expect it to be loud.
Hi-flow cat would be nice and also for the 10Kw gain yes u are dreaming unless you have a aftermarket ECU such as Hondata,Apexi Power FC, Microtech etc.. and a good tuner such as Dyno Dave n Adrian then you probaly might get close to 10Kws.

Which buddy club exhaust r u getting?
IF its Spec 2 (its F*^kn loud ass).
As for the headers you feel the gains depending on which manifold setup ur after.. ie 4-2-1 or 4-1
4-1 Mainly for top end power
and 4-2-1 - for good midrange power.

buddyclub spec 2 is wayy to loud and it will get annoying will also attract alot of attention from cops even idoling and driving normally is loud if u want a buddyclub exhaust i suggest get a buddyclub spec 3 alot quiter and will get good gains wif the headers and ecu tune
