Mega newb questions

As I keep saying, I know stuff about cars, but not finer details.
Sorry for asking so many questions. But here are some more questions...
1-When buying an exhaust pipe for my fit, what else do I need? midpipe, and downpipe?
2-When buying headers, do i need to buy anything to connect the headers to the engine? or does everything come with it. here's an example

06-10 Honda Fit Megan Racing Headers - Megan Racing Performance Parts

3-whats the best order to get things? intake, header, exhaust?
4-whats a good type of intake for a fit?

Thanks and I'll take pictures of my fit as soon as I put everything one =)

depends what kind of exhaust you are looking to get. axle back, cat back, or full exhaust
headers are headers, take the old ones off put the new ones on, everything comes with it.
oder any way you want, most popular is i/h/e first no matter what order. first thing i did was drop so choose whatever.
to me an intake is an intake, they are pretty much all the same, except the t1r carbon intake but as far as fujita, aem and others, same concept.

as far as asking questions, spend some time on here, read through some threads, you can learn a lot from a lot of these people.

thanks, yeah I'm ordering some skunk2 springs to drop my car soon.
I thought of getting a short ram intake, since I drive an auto. And since I want performance, is it better to get a cat back or an axle...i've been hearing that an axle back just basically makes the noise different.

BTW! I'm pretty sure that a short ram is the best way to go for an auto is that right? since I would have to move things around. I was planning on getting the FUJITA short ram intake.

the at can only take the short ram, there's no room for a cold air intake cuz of the huge transmission, unless they recently made a new cai...fujita is a good choice, cheap, fun and reliable

agreed that you can learn a lot from SOME people and you can totally F up your car if u listen to SOME people too

note:
maybe hard to differentiate between the "popular" answer and the right answer
