Y-pipe or Headers?

I want to increase my whp...to maybe 270 or 280...whichever I could get. Im dynoed to 262. You can see in my sig what mods I have now.
What would be a better gain to get there...Headers or Y-pipe...but my thing is, is that I dont want to lose any torque since they say also the more breather mods you have and no pressure, your torque will go down. My tq is at 240.
Any suggestions or ideas?
Thanks.

Headers, and a true dual would mean you have a complete full exhaust set up.. forget about the Y pipe.

H pipe will get you a deep V8 rumble sound.

I may go with the headers. The TP rasp really dont bother me actually. if I went with the HFC....would I lose some power compared to TP?

You'd probably lose 1-2 hp tops from switching... But you would pass emissions for sure and your exhaust will sound a lot more clean and smooth.
