I dont know about the brands, but from what I've heard, headers are a waste of money unless you're planning on doing serious upgrades/mods.

BBK is a good brand and JBA is supposed to be one of the best.

Because they only add like 10HP and for that kind of money its not worth it. If you have a supercharger and performance exhaust with all the other supporting mods, then it'll add much more HP.

I love the way all cars except V6 stangs benefit from FULL exhaust. N/A 4 bangers are good with catback+header, but V6 stangs dont need headers with thier catbacks
