The title just says headers. Looking for a header out of all the headers available out there . OP also mentioned looking into headers so he can pick one header out of the headers. Just like you're looking into cars so you can buy 1 car.

PLM header. For the money, the best header you can get for gains.

it really depends on how far down the rabitt hole you want to go...

Are you going to tune eventually or now? Or are you simply bolting on parts? Do you plan on super charging?

Untuned:
PLM / Fast Forward

Tuned N/A:
Hytech, Toda, T1R (4-2-1 / Tri-y Variants)

Tuned S/C:
Hytech, Comptech, Asura (4-1 Variants)
That or ebay do ones do surprisingly well for your car if your looking to just go with a very standard setup of just I/E/H. As far as gains on a dyno you wont see much.

If tuning dont forget J's is great too. But Tri-Y variants for serious N/A mods.

When it comes down to it, the qeustion you need to answer yourself is, am i planning to take it easy and just spend light and do a mild mod or am i going to do it real, and if so, do it real the first time around. Be ready to spend some serious money. You will be happy when you do

I would probably agree with the PLM. From researching headers, it seems most of the other headers in the same price range lose some steam in the top end (Ricks, Berk,etc)

This makes no sense. The PLM and Berk are both J's replica's.

J's, Toda, Hytech if you have $ to buy authentic ones that produce gains.

PLM is you don't have $.

Maybe not all replicas are created equal. Build quality? I dunno what do you make of the dynos?
