Default Header delimma

Well at first I wasnt going to buy long tubes, but now since I have every bolt on besides them, I want to pick up a set[8D]. I have a jba exhaust and mid pipe and I would like to get their headers as well, however they only sell mid-lengths for our cars and its going to end up costing me 1200 for the headers and matching pipe. Should I just get a set of long tubes that are cheaper or suck it up and get JBA. I can get a set of brand new Hooker headers for 420. What would you guys do? Oh yea, even though the jbamid lengths are very high quality, would I still get more horsepower out of the longtubes? Thanks for reading I know its a lot.

I dont know if I am going to do the install on these things. Dropping the k member only having jack stands sounds like a PITA. But we will see how it goes
