Exhaust Question

Hi guys, I own a 02 WRX. I have about $1k to burn. Wondering what mods to buy for the car. Currently, my car is stock, aside from a catback exhaust and a hole in the muffler ..lol(bought the car with the catback on there). I was wondering if I should go ahead and replace the whole exhaust or just the muffler? Also, I'm looking to get up-pipe and a downpipe. Which ones would you all recommend?

Cobb AP and an up-pipe. and you might be able to find a nice used exhaust too if you keep looking on forums. Try something with a dual tip if you want to stay looking stock. Perrin makes one and so do a few other companies. I have the single tip Perrin and I love it.

ERZ is the cheapest route to go in terms of pricing...how does it sound? Well there are video clips on youtube.
