I'm new to this platform so maybe a 4-2-1 option is old news, but I didn't know about it. My SVT Focus came stock with a 4-2-1 and it was perfect. There were no aftermarket headers that could beat it.
I agree if you are trying to maximize gains then EL, but for DD if you want the sound of an UEL then do it. The small gains for NA between headers will not dramatically change your life for DD. Plus the sound might make you think you are faster.

If you are competing, well more is usually better, so EL.
