Default Headers?

Thinking about switching up my headers.. I have GT Takeoffs and I was wondering what my best option would be? And would there be any power gains?

if ur going to get headers, get long tubes and be done with it. shorties are good but dont really give u a power boost. if u plan on getiing turbo down the line then, save ur money for the shorties, but if ur ot going to get F/I down the road, just get the long tubes

A turbo is a form of forced induction...

In a N/A car they don't show a whole lot of gain save you funds and put that towards something else.
