is it wise to get a new intake but not upgrade the exhaust?

Homer:
For a full exhaust you are talking a lot of money which is not really affordable the now have only bought the car last month. I do want to upgrade the intake though and was wondering if there is any point in doing so if I have the standard exhaust- ie will it make a difference? Or should I do both together? Thanks

just buy a down pipe for the exhaust not the full system. that will make biggest difference.

Or just get a stage 1 remap, best bang for buck.

an intake is fine on stage 1. If you fit the exhaust you will need to get a stage 2 map

Ed666999 is correct that if you want performance you only need the downpipe.  All you get with the cat back part of the exhaust is more noise

Just been on the milltek website and it says down pipe must be fitted with Milltek cat back....??

What downpipes can be fitted with the standard exhaust?

I think you need a reducer to mate it to the stock zorst.
