Bad idea to get headers? I am interested in getting some long tube headers for my T/A, I realize that turbos have to tap into exhaust gasses for power. Is it a bad idea to get headers, if I want to remotely attempt turbocharging later on?
I haven't made long term plans but I think I would like some type of power adder for my car in the future. Is it a good or bad idea to get headers now if i want to turbo later?

Headers can only be used with a supercharger or an STS turbo kit. If your using headers on a Supercharged car, you'll see a difference but not really if you use headers on an STS kit. All the other kits either supply there own headers or use logs or cast iron manifolds. If you seriously want to get a turbo later, invest the money into something that will benefit the turbo setup or any setup for that matter, I.E. Bigger injectors, Better fuel pumps, etc.
