if i bought headers for my car should i buy only the ceramic headers stillen offers ($575) or do u guys think that it would be ok to spend a little less and get some stainless steel headers for $250 on ebay.
I want a good product that gives me some hp but i have always heard stillen charges way to much for their products.

You want a good product? The key-word is GOOD... then you definately do not want to buy from eBay. Alot of that crap is... well crap! Spend a lil' extra cash and get what you pay for! Horsepower cost money BTW... and it will always be expensive! Shop around for the best deal!

Expensive price typically signifies the products quality. Sad to say...
But I bought my Stillen headers used off Ebay for $275... I Bead Blasted them up, had them Chrome-Dipped... And viola. Saved money.
But yes, they are the BEST application to increase HP for the Zed. Other than Nitrous of course.

i haev been researching headers for the N/A also. i talked to a few people about them. i have limited down to 2 companies.
http://amzperformance.com/
and of course stillen.
i found out that the amz headers claim to add 18-22 hp.
i couldnt find an exact hp bump for the stillen but i have heard around 20.
AMZ = $330
Stillen = $575
if i wasnt doin the TT swap i would definitely invest my money into the AMZ headers and spend the rest on some other goodies. my opinion.

I believe those headers sold by AMZ are actually built by ESCORT BTW...

i think that the AMZ headers are mocked after the escort headers because the original escort headers are offered on AMZ's website cost almost $2,000 and the AMZ headers are only $330. definitely not the same set of headers.

I like ebay. Alot of the stuff on there is the same thing you'd get from anywhere else, just cheaper. I've bought a lot of stuff off there (not for my car, though) and I've always been happy with it.
