well if you swap to QTPs race header with high velocity merge collectors hell yea you'll see more power....

I would get all the other bolt ons first. Your gain won't get worth the money or effort. I got rid of mine but not until everything had to come off anyway. The HP difference is suppose to be small. Those QTPs with the race high velocity merge collectors are very pricey and even the guy that sells them admits that they will only give you about an extra 5 HP and will leak until they heat up.
If you are going to try to squeeze that much out then get them where the collector is adjustable and you can tune to match your cam before welding them up.
Oh yeah, if you don't have a cam get that first before swapping out your headers.

I have SLP's. They hang low, people talk **** about them, but I'm puttin' 400 to the ground cam only. They work fine.
