Default test pipe or header first

My current mods are: AEM CAI, HKS HiPower Dual Exhaust, SVAFC II. What should I do next test pipe or header?

If you're interested in doing a header, why not plop down the extra $100 and do both at the same time? There is a group-buy going on right now for Megan's products, $445 shipped for both.

If you want max power gains off a header then j's is your bet. I think test pipe cost much lesser so if I am you, I will do that for now.

So will getting just a test pipe net some decent gains? Are the different brands of test pipes really that different?
