Default Header Question

will i see any noticeable gain upgrading from a dc 4-2-1 2-piece header to a comptech 4-2-1 street header? also, what is the difference between MIG and TIG? i know they're diff kinds of welds but is there a noticeable flaw in the MIG?

thanks. current mods are in the sig - airbix resonator + spoon filter on stock arm soon.

The DC 4-2-1 has constant diameter tubes, while the Comptech has stepped tubes. The difference between MIG and TIG welding is in the look. For normal use, there is really no difference in the strength between the two.
