Which header?

I want to buy a racing beat cat back exhaust system, and i wasn't sure if a new header is necessary as well. If not, then what kind of gains would i see with it as compared to without it? Also wanted to know if there is a place to get RB stuff other than direct from the site. Thanks

Why not read the Racing Beat website? Both of your questions are answered there. And why wouldn't you want to buy their product from them? Personally I don't like going through a middle man if I don't have too. Why should they get to skim a little profit off of someone elses product? I guess that was kinda harsh.....I just really like Racing Beat and all their products and I will always order directly from them.

Same, ordering directly from racing beat is probably the best idea. Although the prices are seriously the same almost everywhere for the RB header, give or take 10$. The cat-back means that it installs from the stock 'cat' to the back. You can keep everything stock except the parts your replacing with this setup.

Ya i totally understand that RB is a great company and im not for skiving off their profits. Just wonderin if they sell their products to retailers. Also, what kind of gains would i see from the RB header? Is it worth doing if im on a kind of tight budget?

Man, read RB's site! Unless you've got a better flowing intake then you're not going to see much of an increase with their header. They say that in the description.
