not sure if i want headers or not??

I've had my frs for about a month now. Believe it or not, its the most powerful car I've owned. I know, pretty pathetic. Every car I've owned before this, had less than 150hp. So FRS to me, its decent. But I think i do want some UEL, for mid range torque. I don't care about top end power. So its obvious, i think the car needs a bit more power. Although, its pretty adequate, since I've only owned cars with less power for my whole life.

So i bought my car with a Borla axle back. I'm not sure which headers to go for, if i do decided to buy them. But I also know i will need to invest in an OFT or a tune. I'd most likely go OFT though. There are so many choices for both UEL and EL for these cars. I do want UEL though.

Now, the dilemma. I don't really want my car much louder than it is. I don't mind a bit louder. I do like the "subaru rumble" that you get from UEL though. I've been looking at the gruppe S UEL. From what I've read, its pretty similar to the Tomei.

I don't track my car, but might take once here and there, but never been on the track before. This is primarily for street. Is the heat shield wrap for the oil pan necessary? Also, if i do go with the Gruppe S, should i just pay the extra dollars for the front pipe?

disclaimer, i know nothing about headers, or exhaust systems in general.

Also, if not Gruppe S or Tomei, which UEL would you suggest, and why?
