Default B7 RS4 reps, downpipes or a coilover set?

I just want to see what you guys think.. I am debating on whether buying the ASP downpipes or the Velocity B7 RS4 reps or Tein Coilover set for about the same amount of $?

From talking to people from this forum who has a fullback exhaust, the hp gain you get from downpipes is minimal, however most says that downpipes make the car sounds meaner.

Hence,I am leaning towards getting the b7 rs4 reps. Not only the rs4 reps would look good on a B6, but I can also use them for my winter driving set (Right now I have 19" Iforged Aeros). Anyone have any quality issues on these Taiwanese Velocity reps?

Are the italian Rs4 reps sold by either Hartmann or Stratmosphere better than the taiwanese reps?

Coilovers will be the item most felt, but hey, do what you like best.

Default yeah, I thought about coilovers too, but..

I am not planning to take my car to the track often, hence coilovers are last on my list for now.

Default Right on. It's a night and day difference even around town. The downpipe is also...

a great suggestion. That is where the restriction is (at the 4 catalytic converters). cheers! Mike
