Yep, go with the header if you want more power.

I'd get the header. You'll probably enjoy the header more than the TB.

I'm going: Cold Air Intake, Header + Motoria Cat-Back (High Flow Cat & Glass Pack), then maybe a TB.

If you don't ever plan to boost your car, go with the header... Otherwise a BBTB might be the way to go.

I would get a cat-back before the header though, if you haven't already got one.

Yeah, this is the NA setup I'm going with for the time being. I've got the intake, 4-2-1 header, Motoria is ordered, and the Magnaflow 16" cat and 35" glasspack are under my bed!

If you have exhaust already, then GET THE HEADER! Your top end will become amazing and your car will be better off the line. What kind of exhaust is it anyway?

Definitely get the BBTB afterwards though. I heard that with stock IM the BBTB sounds awesome!
