The header would be a cheaper way to go for now but a full exhaust system that being the header all the way back would be the best for a performance gain. If you just put an after market header on with the stock exhaust then you would be defeating the purpose. So personally I would wait till I had enough money to just buy a full exhaust system. But its your choice.

If you do go with a full exhaust system I would go with a 2.25" to 2.5" piping for n/a but for a boosted application I would go with 3" piping.
