You haven't done your research, but suite yourself. All I know is that this guy went from 181 whp NA to 175 whp NA on a Hydra standalone EMS dyno tune after switching out from the Boosted2.0 ported header to the low-midrange oriented (catless) Weapon R race header that's also available (also only catless) for your cars as well.

For a ported stock header WITH THE STOCK CAT to outperform a dedicated catless race header on the top end speaks enough for what it delivers. Unless Forcedfed comes out with their shorty header design, or you convince a vendor to start a group buy for the discontinued weapon r shorty header design, the product you want doesn't exist...unless you're willing to spend $800 - $1,175 for the overpriced TRD and Trial JDM 2zz shorty headers kinwaymotorsports offers:
