Default comptech or mugen header??

i have a itr motor with a compression around 11:1, ctr cams, vafc, N1 exhuast, 4.785 final drive, and cam gears....dynoed at 180/136 with a dc sports 4-2-1. I have both a comptech 4-2-1 and mugen 4-1 header that i can put on. I have significant traction problems bc of the jdm final drive so i was leaning towards the mugen. Which header would you guys recommend?

If you have the money to spend on mugen, get the toda header instead.

Where did you get a mugen header for that price? I highly HIGHLY doubt that it is a real mugen header if it only cost $390. Oh, and which header? They do make two.
