Header or pipe

Want to order a Megabomb and q4 for my bike. But wont be able to do both at once. What will i see a bigger performance gain from? The header or muffler?

+1 to that.... I would save any money you want to spend on a header and put it toward the big bore kit. Mixed reviews on the headers.

I just may do that. Swap the header later.

So header is a waste?
I am also looking to do the following:
exhaust
rejet (I assume it will need it with a new pipe)
header?
351 kit

I didn't think so.

I did the muffler, then a header. It made a big difference on my bike, and should be even more so if you have a big bore.

Header or a power or megabomb are fine investments, but the slip-on should come first as it is more bang for the buck.

So header and pipe are still vital esp one is going to do the 351 in the future?
