no shorty headers are a waist of time and will have minimal gains in my opinion and i think most will agree, longtubes or stock manifolds...

mids will make pretty good power as well. honestly only reason why i got mids when i did is because i got a great deal for them and the ORY with install. otherwise LT's are the way to go.

ditto^^^

Since your car is newer than the 2000 model year, the stock exhaust manifolds you have now will flow as good as almost any short-tube header.

A lot of guys swear by mid-legnth headers as well. They make more horse-power than stock or shorties without compromising ground clearance, but as most others have said the majority of guys are running Long tubes or stockers.

well my whole reason for shorties is that i plan on going with a turbo at some point. all i have to do is flip sides and turn them backwards to mount to my y-pipe.
