Exhaust And Cover Plate Questions

Ok, I'm fairly certain that I will be moving up to RB exhaust, but due to finances, I am goin to buy it a piece at a time, kinda. I will buy a header and pre-silencer which should bolt up to the stock connecting pipe, and then to the stock muffler, right? Anyway, after I can afford it, I will finish it off with the Power Pulse muffler. Basically, it will be the RB full exhaust system (header, pre-silencer, and muffler). Just buying it a piece at a time. Anyway, what kind of cover plates will I need? Also, anyone know if will my plan to buy it piece by piece work? It should all bolt up if you think about it, cause they say that you use the stock connecting pipe with the complete system anyway...So if with the system your just replacing the header with another header, and the cats with a pre-silencer, and the muffler with another muffler, than it should all still fit if I just replace the header and cats with their header and pre-silencer, and just hold off on the muffler till later. Doing I t this way Im only spending like $8 more anyway in the long run (+ shipping for two packages), but its not that bad.

yea it should work fine. you will need a acv. plate and a "hot air pipe" block off also but it depends on the year of the car

be sure to order the correct year model parts as they are of differing lengths and will not mate up if you mix and match.
