The Borla is just expensive, it won't give you more gains then the 267 dollar Hooker catback, though it is Stainless Steel. But if you want Stainless you can get the Magnaflow from Hawks that is adapted to fit a Thirdgen instead of a 4th gen for like half of the Borla.

The 305 will have gains with headers. Depends all on what you want to do...

Is that just parts, or is that parts + install?

The Hooker 2055s are a favorite header w/ a y-pipe, and not very expensive uncoated. As far the the catback there are several of systems out there in the 300-400 dollar range. Flowmaster makes one, Hooker, and modifying a Magnaflow.
