I got my ECU upgrade, Intercooler, and crankshaft pulley from Renntech and am very happy. I don't know much about what the right type of headers to get, although I know Renntech has them, which I've heard are pricey, but like I said, don't know much about headers.

Kleeman are the easiest to install and lowest cost but you will get more hp gains from the larger custom long tubes.

Exotic-metal55... comments/thoughts on the Renntech headers? Are there any concerns with changings the headers like a better airbox or heat, etc. I'm thinking about this also.
