Header... no S at the end. you have only one. they will get you like 15Hp to the wheels for a header.

i think mike meant all together with the cai and exhaust plus the new header he might hit around 15 extra hp... and dsm, if it's a n/a car, then headers would be the way to go if ur tryin to get increase as much hp as possible, they're totally worth it

Just an advice I will go with a ecu, piggyback or something like that instead, a decent header let said dc go for $200+, so a ecu tuning with be much better with the 2 mod you got and will deliver more performance than the header.

or both,lol just get headers now, and then save up for a tune, even though I don't see why he would need a tune, might get some hp outta it, but idk if it'll be worth the money. and ya your local mechanic will know how to install those headers for you if you choose to go that route. it's just r/r and any local mechanic should be willing to do that for you
