If you don't have a lot to spend, the stinless power by stainless works are a great budget header set up. That's what I'm running and I don't regret it.

Give this thread a look. It will answer most any question you have about headers.

You have to be smart when looking for headers.....especially the really cheap ones. You can get lots of quality budget headers. Most stainless headers will outlast your car and performance will be very close. Read read read....then make an educated decision.

+1 for the Stainless Power headers. They are a great budget friendly alternative to the top tier headers and you still get a 2 year warranty.

Best regards,

Tesas speed is cheaper than stainless power and is good quality. I don't know why no one brought them up yet.
