What are you trying to do with the car, if its have fun I'd go with the headers for sure, make sure to try and do it yourself, that builds on the experience.

You really ought to decide for yourself. Don't do something because other people say to do it. Do what YOU want since it's YOUR car.

Whoa, wait... Are you trying to raise your redline? Don't. 1) The engine won't make much power above redline, and 2) your engine will self-destruct because the piston speeds will be well beyond critical.

Sooo, what exactly are you asking in regards to the ECU? You still haven't been clear on that.
