Default bbk headers

I can get a brand new set of bbk shorty headers still in the box from a friend for 115 dollars. Would it be worth it to get them. How much will power/ sound quaility improve from the stock headers. I already have o/r h and dumped flows. Thanks

What mid pipe do you have? Just to let you know, I had fitting issues with my BBK shorties and my mid pipe...which was BBK also It's not horrible but it is not the best either, there is just a tiny leak where they bolt up.
