I would say to go with Borla at least for now. Here's why:
•They're pretty cheap.
•They're
the lightest headers available right now.
•You can sell them later when you go FI if someone releases some really good S/C-supporting headers.
Lots of people talk shit about the Borla headers, but most of it is just that a few people had problems (there was indeed an early batch that was bad) so everyone else thinks all Borla headers are garbage and spread that attitude around the forums like fire. You'll also find lots of comparisons between the quality of welds on the Borlas vs pretty much every other set. Yes, the Borlas have probably the worst looking welds on the market, but I have yet to hear of someone having cracked welds.
I'm hoping in the future someone will release some obtainable high quality titanium headers. Until then, I went with a used set of Borla headers. Three hunnah bucks. When/if the time ever comes to upgrade, I can probably sell them for what I paid for them or at least really close to it. If you want headers NOW but are concerned with diameter for a future FI build, my recommendation is to do the same thing I am: cheapos for now, upgrade later.
But as it's already been mentioned, I think you'll be fine with just about any set in regards to their diameter restricting air flow behind a supercharger.
If weight is a concern for you, and it should be if you care at all about performance, here are some numbers to make your decision even more complicated:
