At the end of the day with even with the best NA bolt-ons that money can buy, it's still a <= ~200whp (on gasoline) car. So I am ok with buying a $200 header, it gives me good readings on the butt dyno and rumbles. I would never spend $1000 on a header, I would put it towards a FI setup if I cared that much for power.
What if I told you that the header + tune makes more power than a Phantom ESC (which can't sustain the power anyways), and makes more power than a Sprintex/Innovate that is heat soaked?
