Headers for 2000 Boxster S question!

I want a great set at a GREAT PRICE any ideas. I already have a Cargraphic muffler and will have cat by-pass pipes after headers are on. I do not wish for any CEL to come on and have looked at some like Instant G and ScarGo. All promise power yada yada yada, But for bang for the buck who is the best.

I was looking at getting the 2ndary Cat bypass pipes from www.fabspeed.com

They look aweseome and your CEL will stay off and about $500.

CEL light stays off so says Fabspeed. I haven't heard from alot ppl with this mod yet so I would proceed cautiously. As far as headers go you can't beat the Dansk. They may not look as polished and fancy as the ones mentioned but they will do the job just the same at half the price or less. I think those instant G's and the highend S-car-go models cost around 3k so actully the dansk are about a 1/3 less.

no CEL lights for me...

headers, bypass, muffler, etc all by techart...previous owner had done all the work and he was NOT cost conscious...receipt for the parts and labor was $7k including the above plus new throttle body, new ECU, and air filter swap (but no other monkeying with intake stuff). I've owned the car for close to a year now and no problems...just joy.
I believe the techart headers by themselves msrp at $1,900.
