I have the CAI. I would recommend it, the fitment is good and it works. I would highly recommend buying a new filter for it though. Something that allows more air flow as this one is pretty crappy.

I don't have any insight on the headers though. Other than all headers are going to give you a ton of rasp

I have done a few things to mine. I put a K&N Dry Flow on it and cut it into a Ram Air Intake as i pulled my fender liners. I just used intercooler piping so that i didn't cut the raceland piping. Now i can either use a CAI or a RAI. Win=Win

I bought the Raceland CAI back when it was $70 or so. It's been on for a good year or more without any problems. I wouldn't hesitate if you're looking into purchasing one. Everything runs smoothly without any problems. They've gone up in price since then, but I recommend it over the more expensive CAI's. After all, it's just a pipe. As for the headers, I could agree with Irishguy0224. Rasp, rasp, and more rasp. Add the Raceland exhaust in combination with the headers and you'll hate Raceland forever.

In other words, Raceland is mostly looked upon for its CAI and cheap coilovers by this community. Give it a try, it won't harm you.

I have the Raceland CAI. Put a K&N filter on it in the summer and swap to the one it came with in the winter. Very nice upgrade for the price. Sounds great.

Was actually a good compromise between the wife and I. She refused an exhaust, but this adds a nice hum.

Are you ordering more than one header?

Headers= v6, v8, etc

Header= 4 cylinders.

Just buy an AEM dry flow filter for the intake.

Are you being a worthless grammar ****? Do you say, "I am going to order raceland header"? No, you say "I am going to order raceland headers"

Maybe prior to your worthless post you should stop, think, re-think, and then understand what you are about to post prior to doing so. The question for the OP had been answered by this point.

"I am going to order a Raceland header"

Then you would know that the last sentence in your last statement was in fact, incorrect.

"Sorry if I am being a grammar ****. I am it comes from dealing with all the retards in West Virginia; it kinda rubs off when I am online."

Should have been:

Sorry if i am being a grammar ****. I am, it comes from dealing with all the retards in West Virginia. It kind of rubs off on me while I am online.

If you didn't have anything productive to say to the OP. Then refrain from posting. Last I knew, he wasn't asking for a grammar lesson.

Why would he say headers (plural) if he is only ordering one ?
