Default Need help deciding what headers to buy.

Guys I have been wondering which headers to buy. Looking at Pacesetters or QTPS HVAC. I know that there is big diffenrence in price. Is it worth the price difference and the performance gain? Also do I need to put cats back on or leave them off? I am going to put cam in soon maybe heads too

not much of a performance gain between headers, but stainless QTP's will last forever and I know that the qtp has a better flowing ORY. I say go no cats but it depends on your emission regulations in AR. Or go with cats and get cut outs before the cats.....

Save up for the QTPs and run cats. Our cars smell like *** without cats, and the power difference between no cats and hiflow ones are very slim.

QTP's will be worth your while definitely. And they have a better price right now.
