The twins are notorious for the low end torque and power and apparently UEL headers help with that a lot. I hear EL headers help peak powers more than low end torque. (I want low-end torque/hp)
So, is it true that I could buy an EL header and get a custom tune so my low-end torque is higher and maybe sacrifice peak power?

Not rearly, the torque dip is a lot to do with the valve timing and the header design.
tuner adjust parameters to get the best resultsxthey can but its also a lot to do with the header
you can buy a gruppe s uel header pretty cheap and they are good quality
and their are plenty of oft the shelf tunes for those headers
if you want the best of both el and uel headers then your going to need to spend up on an ACE header and a custom tune probably cost you about tripple the price
