Default Headers
Just wondering if it's worth buying a set of unequal headers with matching up pipe .

Depends on power and header type as well as up-pipe/turbo spec.

Ah right so if I was going 350+ bhp that's when I would need to fit headers and up pipe ?

Up to 400 you're fine with ported and a matched up-pipe (Harvey Smith from Alyn @ As) over 400 it's worth considering tubular.
