headers are a pain for our cars but id go with ceramic coated headers such as

dc, strup. also get straight pipes if your going to get headers

good gain for your buck

40K+ miles on my DC ceramics. first had them on my early 03 sedan and then swapped them over to my 05 coupe. no issues and they are the most inexpensive I could find. $400. the install can be a PITA and will cost you.

Good call, forget the headers there's way more restriction in the OEM cats
and exhaust.

^ agreed with the above. replace cats, y-pipe and then exhaust before you do the headers. less headaches and less expensive install costs.

I only did the headers again since I already had them from my 03 sedan and my mechanic is use to working on Porsche, Audi, VW and he said the job was easy compared to working in those tight spots. did not charge me much either.
