JDL is probably the highest quality in terms of welds and everything. OFH + OFT is the best bang for your buck snatch in terms of a quality header. Also, don't exclude other companies like Revworks, HKS, and etc. Just a tip, don't add headers yet if you're still under 1k miles- enjoy your brand new car for a bit. In the end, it's your money, your car.

I'd do headers before exhaust personally. Headers unlock more performance than any other single part of the exhaust and they respond better to performance tuning.

Headers make the car come alive.

Open flash headers, open flash tablet, drop in filter, possibly exhaust is you want the sound and looks , phantom supercharger unless you are wanting to stay purely naturally aspirated. That should get you

Just installed a Revworks header to replace my borla.

Borla was just fine when removing, no rust/etc. and the revworks went right in like a glove.

Can't complain with either one. Just wanted a change.
