Your worst nightmare...
Is it worth the money?

I am trying to get more power into my C32 so i called Kleeman here in long island (RPM Racing) and they quoted me for some ok prices. For stage 1, they quoted me $3,395. Which includes ECU, Pulley or bigger crankshaft and filters. Should bring me up to 395 HP. Stage II was all that and some Kleeman Headers and the price is $6,795, and it just brings me up to 411 HP. I don't know if it would be worth to get the Headers for all that money when it is going to increase my HP by 16 ponnies. That is a lot of money. Please some one tell me if these headers sound good, it must be some other benefits to just adding the headers for 16 ponnies. Does any one know of some other tunners that will provide more HP for the money?

I see everyone has the SL55 Splitters or filters. Can someone post pics of how this would look? Are there any HP gains? Please let me know and where i could buy these. Thanks for any input.
