A good set of 4-2-1 extractors will give you some more torque down low. I believe that 4-1 gives you better performance in the higher revs.
Your engine should run a little cooler with extractors.

extractors brand new ar from about $250
ive seen old genie ones for $50

sounds a little louder
weill rev a little more freely but no masive power gains
also to fit them shoudlnt cost more than $50 at the most
all they do is get a new gasket and bolt them up and put them in the flange of the exhaust and weld them up

also the tip was just average i paid $20 my tip it doesnt matter what brand it is as long as it is a cheep ass rice one
