Before the flamers set in; I am gonna tell ya to use the search bar. I guarantee you will find all the information you want to know As for exhaust in particular, that is dependent on personal preference. Exhaust will not help much with performance unless you put in a midpipe. It's mostly for the musical tune your car plays

back to the OPs question, greddy single side exhaust plus any midpipe should do the trick.
