Default Need some opinions on headers and whatnot...

I have the K and N CAI and the TRD exhaust. My question is, what do you think would be the best combination of headers back that would give the most power, while still not sounding like some riced out Honda and within a reasonable budget?

DC
MMW
Alphawerks
Megan

Let me know what everybody thinks. I'd like to keep the CAI and the TRD axle back if that helps in your decision any. Thanks

Any of them will likely sound like a "riced out Honda" without some resonators in the exhaust.

I have searched and read something somewhere about a company possibly producing an s-pipe or mid-pipe with a built in resonator. Is that something you've heard? Or should I just take the car down to the local shop and have them weld in a 22-30 inch resonator onto the mid-pipe?

Also, what's your opinion on the best headers?
I was kinda leaning towards the DC honestly, but I here the MMW (Weapon R) makes the best gains.

Something about the DC makes more/better power thru the lower RPM range and the Alphawerks or MMW makes it thru the higher range....
