I think the AA tune results will be similar with the DISA smoothing and slight increase, the HP numbers will be different since n51 has different compression.

I would not worry about exhaust and intake as much.
K&N and charcoal delete is popular for intake modding

To get anywhere with exhaust you have to cut out cat converters: headers or secondary cat delete
