headers are only good if you have the rest of the engine set up to work with it. simply putting a bigger pipe on a motor may give it a sense of "faster." in reality you are losing some low end torque, making your car louder, and trading off of high rpm power and i doubt you run at that rpm for more then a few short revs a day.

in short....the benefits of a header are greatly overcast by the negatives.
LOL okay yo Good point on the money waste, especially for such a popular car with a big market...

Hey guys thanks for all the posts I think I'm just gonna save my money for my NA-T since everyone is agreeing that headers take away low rpm hp so thank you for helping me make up my mind.
