Default Headers & up pipe upgrade

Im looking to upgrade the turbo and intercooler on my MY00 uk turbo sometime soon and was wondering if its worth upgrading the header and up pipe? Car currently has S/S exhaust, walbro & remap, and was looking at fitting a VF34/5 and a new age STI top mount. So, is it worth it for this spec? And which ones should I look at?

i wouldnt bother with tubular ones at that level of tune.you would be better off with some standered ported ones.

Thats what everyone says

I fitted ScoobyClinucs SS headers after the initial TBE & Fuel pump.
The 30lb ft gain in torque was worth it. Response and spool was also better than standard.

Then theres the howl that you get when over 5k!!!
