Pacesetter is a good company. Anything would be a increase from stock I bet. Go with the one that doesnt hurt your wallet.

If you can look for a 4-2-1 style header, it gives better power in the mid-range while the 4-1 style shifts your power band up more to the top end. Tsuedo(sp?) headers can be found for around the same price on e-bay and a lot of people swear by them.

Edit: Just looked on ebay and none turned up but they do pop up from time to time. RK Sport also makes a 4-2-1 but they are pretty pricey.
