Default Which headers are the best

so i have been looking online for headers (limit $400) and so far the best one that i have found are the megan headers with S-pipe for a 05-06 TC, i have a 07 TC so will those fit? Will any 05-06 TC headers fit for a 07 TC?

HEADER... singular, not plural. The tC only has one Header.

Alphawerks is the best headers. Trust me, they produce the most HP and you won't regret... as for the s-pipe, I would either get ZPI or megan, and altogether it shouldn't cost more than $400, if it does than go with megan although power won't be as much..

False, the MMW header produces the most power and least rasp

It is beyond the $400 price range, however.

Just remember that the gains will be at a particular place on the band and not across the entire band. So you wont "Feel" near what you think from the advertisements.

If you read up on header design, you will learn quickly that varioius designs trade off power in one rpm range for power in another.

if you get the alphawerks header it don't come w/ an s-pipe so you will spend more than $400....so get mmw it is worth it. you can get it online for about $550 now
