In your case, you can likely find a set of 116 euro logs, but headers will be 
custom...

I may have a line on a set of euro logs. Drop a line if you're interested.

All depends on your budget and what you are trying to achieve.  Is it a US
or euro 380?   Personally I wouldn't put a ton of money into a US 380.
Having said that, a few simple things you can do are:

1) remove resonators -  that will give you a little more pep and a little
more noise, some of it droning but not overly bad imo
2) you can replace cats with free flowing cats such as the ones by magnaflow
3) for a really awesome system (most money) get euro headers and free
flowing cats

I put timevalve minus resonators on my SEC years ago, 10 or so, and love
it.  Stainless, no rusting, nice sound but not crazy.  At some point I'll
put the tri-y's on there...
