Headers tend to be at least midway into the order of mods as the HP/$ is kinda low unless it is a warranted mod... I would do top end mods before headers.. Headers only produce when youve got significant congestion, and unless youve already done the cam thing your probably not pushing the exhaust too hard...

You know, you could just die grind the OEM manifolds...

But as you alluded to, the sound of headers are oh so nice...

Shortys or long tube? Don't waste your $$$ on the shortys. Long tube headers will change the sound(No Cats).

Go for the long tubes. More torque.

I apologize for being off-topic,
But I want Zora's garage.
Cars and all.
I've been looking at that sig once in a while,
and now I'm ready to say it in public.
I love that garage, and I'm not ashamed
to say it.
There, I've said it. I'll go away now.
