^ haha that would be a nice move! With the mods that you are going with Andy I would really tell you that going with the equal header would really be best with the mods you have. This will give you just about every bult on you can have. I would think about getting some bigger injectors because a stage 2 sti can max out stock sti injectors.

headers and a tune from ED on 91 and 100 for when you really want the power will make you very happy!

Well Tomei makes a very high quality product. If you look at the UEL's they are all designed the same exact way with the 4-1 design. I think it all comes down to not having to worry about welds breaking and design quality. Also a company like Tomei can afford to put plenty of time and money into R&D. I like the idea of the "velocity chamber" on the GT Spec but lets be honest they don't spool noticeably faster that any of the other headers otherwise we would be talking about on these forums.

Also the 3 bolt flange does make allot more sense. When I work on flanges at work the closer the spacing and thicker the flange material the higher the pressure rating of the flange. For example a 2" 150# flange has 4 bolts in it, and if you double the flange rating to 300# it has 8 bolts in the same diameter flange to keep the pressure from bleeding out in between the studs. So do we need this on our pre turbo plumbing? Probably not, but better to be over sealed then under.
