for me its headers and ORY hands down. i bought my hookers and put them on a little bit ago and love them. but also not a tune is a VERY good idea after headers it will make a world of difference

This could go either way, depending on what is most important to you. If you prefer all-out performance, stall. If you prefer a great sound with some performance, then headers and ORY. However, the performance of the headers won't be as much as the SOTP you feel from stalling it.

If you ever plan on installing a cam, even a small cam, go ahead and get a stall first.
