I really doubt the ebay headers will make much difference- selling for about 200 bucks means they couldnt possibly have done that much R&D on them or used very high quality materials. If you can afford the supercharger then you can afford some high quality headers from JP and the like...

The header for my 52fe camry was $450, and that was only one... personally, Id wait and do things right.

I think sienna said he felt no difference with ebay headers. Probably due to the poor Y pipe design.

The gen1 JP headers were made for a s/c'd setup.
