What else to do? What to buy?

I have a S4 N/A and i have a rotorsports racing street port rebuild and some RB headers & presilencer. I bought 2 n1 mufflers and i plan to get a shop to run 2.5" exaust piping. I'd like to get this swap done within a matter of a few days (im on leave- United States Navy) so i dont have too much time for something to go wrong or for something to break. I'm going to run redline mtx fluid for my tranny.. but what type of motor oil is the best to use? Also what parts should i plan to buy while doing the swap (water pump etc....) I have a ACT stage 2 clutch with my engine.

i have another problem, all three of my catalytic converters are gutted from the previous owner. I need to make it pass emissions. I plan to put on the headers and presilencer after i pass emissions. Will the header and presilencer replace all three cat's? If so, what should i do to make it pass... Buy a used main cat just for passing emissions? Im getting it tested for Atlanta Georgia, but im stationed in Texas. I just need to get it registered in atlanta so i can avoid high insurance prices here in texas.

With my RB streetable headers and presilencer, straight back to the two N1' mufflers, will it be loud and raspy? should i buy some resonaters or something of that sorts to keep it from being too loud?

also, what should i look for when doing this swap from the stock 13b to the street port rebuild?

Thanks
Justin

Well how old are you? insurance is not that bad. Its around 86 dollars when I was 18 now I am 19 and it is going down a couple of bucks. Some counties don't have emmissions all together and all you need is an adress there so you can get a PO box and take it for inspection there.

As for the noise N1 mufflers are just fancy rice cans from what I have seen and heard. there are not garbage but they are still loud.

damn dude that is horible. lol My friend spun out while we raced back when and his rates didn't go up much and he is about a month younger than me. Your getting *** raped lol. I would expect 100 dollar/mo rate with an accident not 200+! shop around man it too me a while to get find this company. My friend also uses it but its local here in laredo so I doubt its available in corpus :-/ But my friend used to pay 154 a month and I got him a deal with his altima at my insurance co. for around 85 a month. shows what a little searching can do eh?

Anyways you still have a bunch of stuff you can do. Look at my sig you might want to check my company out when the secondary testing begins and peopel cn buy their CAI pack's for cost of manufacturing.
