New exhaust & CAI

I've got about $500 to spend and am thinking new exhaust and maybe CAI as well. What's my best bang for the buck? In thinking dynomax or maybe a Gibson catback system but not sure yet. Opinions?

I've got an '03 CC 1500 with the 5.9l

You could get a decent CAI for that much money, but a good cat back exhaust will cost you more than $500.00. The Gibson cat back system I am considering, is over 6 bills.

I was a little confused on how you were going to get both for 500. You could maybe do a muffler swap and a CAI. Still think it will be over 500.

Doesn't have to be both. If I had to pick one I'd do the exhaust first. Previous owner slapped a tractor muffler on there and removed the rest of the pipe & tip so right now it sounds pretty obnoxious

Theres a shop in my city that does cat back duals for $190 out the door. Extra if you want different muffler, cant remember what they use, I think FM.
