Hey man, sorry for the late response. The header is a great increase in mid-range torque. If you already have an exhaust, catback etc. It will be ALOT louder so be forewarned. I'm rocking the stock exhaust with perrin tips with the Open flash header and I don't mind the noise one bit.
EDIT: I see you're running FP, and catback. If you do end up going with the header, I would look into swapping back the stock catback and keep the FP etc and see how you like it. (increase in power > sound IMO)

If you're in the market for a new header, I would get the new header from openflash that includes the Overpipe with it, a very good deal. I think E85, FD swap and the header/tune will make this VERY livable for not being FI
That said i'm looking into the ESC for a lower kick in torque and keeping very close to NA reliability
