Default What kind of headers??

After i install my SLP loudmouth exhaust, FIPK intake, 70mm throttle body and plenum this april im probably going to want to buy some gears headers and a tuner, i got idea for the gears and tuner but i have no idea what kind of headers i should go with, i definatly want long tubes right????, and what if i get shorties are they a lot worse than LT's, and also what kind of brand should i go with im thinking maybe the SLP but there 800$,

BTW, are underive pullies worth it, and does anyone else have any ideas for some more engine mods ( besides supercharger, turbo, or nitrous)

Shorties are defanitly worse than long tubes, shorties dont flow much better than stock ones. Look at bbk, they have nice headers and I think they're around 500 bucks, keep in mind with long tubes, you will have to get a matching mid-pipe if you dont want to do any custom fitting. Kyle

Long tube all the way don't waste your time and money on short tubes. SLP make a good set of headers, if you want to spend that much. I like BBK LT they are $500 and are made very well also.
underive pullies are a good mod if you are going to stay N/A go with Steeda, or BBK, but DO NO GET MAC "piggyback style". As far as other mods you can do some cams or heads or both.
