Default $500 Bucks,What Should I get??

I'm not sure what I should buy.Should I buy a pipe or invest in other things.I'd like to not go over $500 if possible.I was looking at the Alba pipe but it seems most people like other pipes.
I know you guys aren't going to want to tell me what to buy and your probably sick of the pipe deal so if you could just drop a line on some ideas.
Thanks in advance,
Jamse

Not to disagree with Raptor03 but we have had some real problems with yoshi pipes. I am a real fan of HMF for a middle cost pipe with some fair gains throughout.

I had a problem too,the skin of the pipe got burned brown,but i sent it in and they replaced for free and repacked it and shipped it out with in a week...they got my respect back,and i love the yosh,Im sure the HMF is a great pipe because there are so many brands,it's really looks that counts..

Get the Alba. For $575 approx. you get: Pipe w/ race endcap, Full jet kit including needles, pilots, and mains, Proflow adapter with K&N filter with outerwear, Engine crankcase breather.

Get a pipe! Just get the one that you like the looks and price of. I got my full Yoshi comp w/ spark arrestor for $389 from Chapparal and pro flow for $150. If you want to save money you can buy the jets individually. Just a little over $500, though.

So basically go for the one that looks the best?The only pipes i've seen is the ones in DirtWheels.I think my favorite is the Alba from what i've seen.I like the chrome billet look.Does the Alba discolor any?The ad says $349 for full exhaust.That seems awfully cheap.I don't want to get something thats going to look like junk.Will the Alba give me any lower rpm power.Thats my main concern.
I've read that some people have had more power from just replacing the muffler and using the stock header.Is this true or is a full exhaust best?
When I replace my pipe do I need to get the filter and everything to feel the x-tra power?
Sorry for so many questions fellas,I could'nt find all the answers I needed in the search.
Thanks again,
James

GYTR slip on and GYTR jet kit. You may be able to fit a K&N and proflow in there also depending on how much the rest is. I have heard really good impressions about the GYTR slip on's on a stock motor.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

What about the Tri-Oval Yosh exhaust? I'm looking into getting that coupled with installing a high comp piston.
