Some good brands of intakes are AEM, Injen, K&N and as far as headers go id go with DC sport full race headers. Whichever intake/header you get they should come with all the installation hardware and with these things they are just taking off the stock parts and bolting them right up. Although when you put your headers on check out your exhaust manifold gasket, see if there are any cracks or chipped off pieces that may have a potential to cause a leak in this case its just a matter of going to an auto parts store and getting one but if it looks good then just stick it back on there and bolt them up

do you want more power in higher end or mid to upper???? a 4-1 header will help you in top end and a 4-2-1 will give you more mid to upper...
a goog header would be spoon,mugen,toda,jun, and dc sport stainless header... remember buying a good header is like buying a tv...do you want a good one that is going to last or a cheap one that will last a short time...
horspower wise should be about 4-6 horsepower.......

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY "POWER IN HIGHER END OR MID TO UPPER??" AND WHAT'S THE DIFERENCE BETWEEN A 4-1 AND A 4-2-1 .
WHENEVER I INSTALL THEM DO I HAVE TO GET SOMETHING ELSE OR DO THEY COME WITH THE KIT .

a 4-1 gives you stronger gains in higher rpms basically from about 4000 rpm to redline...... a 4-2-1 header gives you from power from mid range to upper gains in you rpms
