Default question on headers

i am next month going to be adding my true duals ordering my headers this week. i was wondering if there was a real diffrence in the ebay headers and pacesetters any power diffrence? already have my dynomax bullets, and xpipe. i was just wondering because me being 16 i dont have unlimited money supply so if theres no diffrence i was going to go with the ebay headers.

the ebay ones work really good for the money, there was just a thread the other day about the ebay headers and so far everyone likes them with only a few ppl having to mod them slightly. i have them and love them.
