No, skip headers for now and most here will tell you that shorty's dont do nothin anyway. Get a good tune, it'll do wonders!

Welcome! Your first mods should be a CAI, cat back exhaust, LT headers, or E-fans(no particular order)... from there get a mail order tune for those mods. Then put some $$ into your trans But that's JMO.
