Not to say that headers can't make a car better but I think what has been said above is pretty much dead on for most vehicles these days.
on my sentra ser spec v, after i installed my header it made quite a bit of differance. install was pretty easy too, which is to be expected on a 4 cylinder. didnt notice any torque loss and noticed a gain in hp. maybe because the stock exhaust manifold on my sentra is so much shitter than the exhaust manifold on the 370z?
