yeah, there's all different kinds, all pretty much custom. doesn't really do anything more for performance than the standard aftermarket header, basically for looks

Re: bent-up headers
That type of header is specifically designed for a turbo. Each tube is an equal length, and it makes the turbocharger spool much faster. (I think it has to do with the exhaust gas from each exhaust port hitting the turbo at the exact same time and with about the same velocity) It's really important if you are using a really large turbo (those usually have major spool issues) and it can help a lot with 1/4 mile times, and just overall engine/turbo responce.

Re: bent-up headers
yea, there is no real special name that I know of. I call them equal length turbocharger exhaust manifolds.
