I think I am going to go with the breather first. Should I expect any better gas mileage with the breather or the pipes for that matter. I know the pipes will sound go but I want to know if it is like a car were the mileage and the power go up.

there is a lot of debate about putting a breather on without tuning(re-mapping it).

I decided to get pipes first because of the deal I found on them.
my pipes alone made a big difference in temp.(it is hot in traffic etc.) because it leaned out...
next will be the AC and Tuner going on at the same time...
I just got to save up for them...

Thanks for the input Nightrider. I know the feeling about having to save up, that is one of the reason I was thinking the breather first then the pipes but I do like the way yours looks with the pipes!
