just buy the stuff that's being sold under the "stuff to be sold" part of this forum. for $900 my first move would be to get a manny though.

oh 'n' it depends on what kind of headers, exhaust, intake... 'cuz you could probably get all that off of ebay for like $500. So it really depends on brand...
