Not if you plan on boosting it before 100k miles.

Looks like good gains to be had from a header change!

I think the gains from a aftermarket EL header will be similar to the older EJ gains as low as 10hp and as high as 20hp dynoed.

Yes very true. My old 92 SVX had that.

I found it Not to hard to change the plugs on that even tho its Quad cam flat 6 and not much room to work with.
Just need the right tools to do the job and that makes the job so much easier.
One of those ratchit spanners in 10mm fantastic to undo the coil packs.
