PPE Long Tube Headers with UpRev Tune?

Hey guys, so I'm trying to get about 30-40 WHP. I think the PPE long tube headers are solid from what I've heard and UpRev tune I'm told can get anywhere from 32-40 WHP with no other bolt ons. My main question is if I get the PPE headers is it really necessary at the moment for me to get a full catback exhaust I was leaning towards and HKS possibly, but 1200 and if it doesn't help the HP gains by much I rather hold off....I have muffler delete at the moment with nice 4 inch magnaflow tips. I'd really like to hear opinions if the CBE is necessary when getting the headers and a tune to get 30-35 WHP gain. Thanks in advance.

Good luck actually getting those numbers. Headers plus full bolt-ons and a tune might get you close.

What other full bolt ons are you talking about? Aren't PPE long tube headers proven to make the most WHP with a tune? Are you saying I need a CAI and CBE to get close to 30-35 whp from that setup? I was going to trying and just do the headers and tune for now, thinking the exhaust wouldn't make that much of a difference, but maybe I am mistaken and the catback exhaust is necessary to compliment the headers to get a decent HP gain? Please input would be great, thanks again.

It would seem the cats are the choke point. Gotta go with a RHFC to get your target. Can't speak to the rest of the exhaust other than to say "tiny straws".

Granted, I have only a catback. No tune nor any other bolt-on. I'm going by what I read.

Where is it proven that PPE made the most power for a long tube header?

The VHR headers flow pretty well already.
