Like someone else said, maybe an intake and a nice clean cat back...if your happy with the K&N and current muffler...leave it be and work on the cosmetics....something to consider, your already not planning on keeping the car but for a year maybe so.....either leave it stock...or if you wanna make it look good....DROP IT..Cavis and Sunfires have huge wheel wells and can easily fit a 17 with a low profile tire and still get good alignment....forget the power and go for looks right now....your next car....you can start from scratch and work on buying something that is better suited for tuning. Also....you mention custom built headers....I COULD be wrong....but unless you are real tight with the owner of the muffler shop....anything custom...especially something as intricate as headers would cost you a fortune...much more than buying some aftermarket headers...but again...on that car...it wont help...have them fix your exhaust leak and work on making the car look good for the rest of the time you own it. gl
