Poll: Headers or Apexi Coilover?

I wanted too asks this again. So, which one would you get first, Comptech Headers or WS Apexi Coilover? They are about the same price, but I do not know which direction to go. My only concern is that I do not want to lose the feel of my stock ride. I am already getting AEM CAI, but if I get the Headers. I will probably get the sways. Thus, you opinion will be deeply appreciated. Thanks.

I just got the WS Apexi coilovers installed on my TL today and it makes a world of difference in handling. It is great.
I am planning to get headers too but later on.

I would definately go full suspension first to get great handling out of the car. It makes driving a lot more fun. The headers are good, but you won't even notice you have them after a few days, and the power is up real high in the rpm band. The suspension upgrade you will feel each and every time you get in your car.

But, if for whatever reason you want to keep the stock ride feel (way too soft and unresponsive for me) than go for the headers. Either way spend the extra 200 and get the CAI--It will make a lot of difference.

Thanks for the info and I have decide to go with the suspension. I am gonna get the Apexi WS Coilover/Comptech Sway Bar/AEM CAI. I believe if I only gonna feel the Headers after 5000 RPM then I might not have that much use for right now. Also, I believe if can not handle or it does not have a good feel with no mods, then how is it gonna handle with headers i.e. turning, lane changing, and etc.
