You should buy neither and instead put that money towards trading up to an IS-F, M3, C63 AMG, or RS4.

then don't waste your money on someone's headers! Trade your ride first!

In that case, if (when) you trade up to an IS-F, save the money that you were going to spend on PPE headers for your IS350 and use it to buy Sikky headers for the IS-F.

People on the F forums are raving about the phenomenal gains achieved from Sikky headers.

No doubt, if you are in the works of getting an F, don't put any more money into your IS.

You will get phenomenal gains with PPE headers on your IS as well - thats what headers are made to do. Only downside, headers will not pass smog, and of course not street legal just like midpipes with cat deletes.

Ok guys, i think ive made a WISE decision, Ill know about the F trade tomm, and if that does not happen I am going with the PPE headers. Im 34 and have a 2 yr old son and a 12 yr old step daughter, the last thing i probably need is a GSXR, want one yes, but need, NO.. My kids do need a father... Hopefully that F or the headers will give me some excietment.....

If you went for the gixxer, you likely would stop worrying about engine mods to your car. That's the entire reason I went with the 250, after doing 0-200 in like 11 seconds, cars seem well... Slow? I really do love my 250. But if I want to punk civic fan boys, I do it at a light on my R6. Mind you, I still drop too much money into my car, and my bike. So maybe the headers would be cheapest.

AND... if I know women at all (which I don't lol) you're going to end up having to get two helmets and jackets. That's like another 700$ for something she'll use once. Good luck with your decision though. Let us know what you go for.
