Angry Exhaust vs. S-AFC

I have two options: Custom Exhaust or S-AFC

I have a 93 SC4 w/ Intake. What would give me more horsepower? I ask because i believe VsSC400 said the S-AFC on non turbo SC4's only gives around 10 rwhp. How much would the exhaust add, and which should i get?

I would do the exhaust before the S-AFC.

definitely exhaust first, more immediate hp's and a custom look from the outside of the car

BTW, why the little angry smiley in the title? Why are you upset about this?

Yea, exhaust on the V8's definately make a difference. Get your whole exhaust done if your going to do it. Then save up for the s-afc so you can tune it with the intake and exhaust and not just an intake

lol its an angry face cuz it was hard getting information, and plus i went to a local performance place and they said they wouldnt put in the S-AFC into my car, and when i asked how much MagnaFlow mufflers were they said 150$ for one. I can get 2 cheaper than that on hottexhausts, or i can get it even cheaper on ebay. I think im gunna do the exhaust first, so thank you for all ur input it was greatly appreciated!
