Default lookin for some stuff headers,intake

I've been thinking about buying new headers soon and I doing some research and I came upon these
- http://www.meganracing.com/products/...2&catid=67
-http://www.aempower.com/ViewProduct.aspx?ProductID=209

Im looking to get at least like 25 Hp in power gains from these two, any differ and reccomend anything else (different headers, intake?)
How does this sound?

They arent bad products(I own both of them) the headers arent the best, but for the price you cant complain. You wont see 25hp gain though.

hard to say as I put them both on at the same time I did a motor swap. There probably is a difference, definitely a difference in sound.

you'll definitely feel a difference with an intake and exhaust.
id recommend getting a cheap ebay intake with a brand name filter, like k&n or aem
you'll save a bunch of money that you can use for the headers and exhaust.

dang i wish i wouldve seen that for my 6th gen. i wouldve definitely gotten it instead.
well if you're about snow hydrolocking your motor, then yeah that would be smart. but keep in mind for that to happen you'll need to be in about 3ft of water, and if thats happening, you have bigger problems
