Choices, choices.I need some rims and tires before I do anything...

Since my last post, I've done a lot of figuring and what I figured out is that this kit is the way to go for me... period. I do have a few problems that I'm going to encounter with my current setup, so I still have a few questions I need answered... (one was answered already as I also have an Injen SES exhaust that I'm NOT willing to part with 
)
1) I, along with many others, currently are running aftermarket headers... Do you think they will/can withstand the stress of the turbo? Would you recommend going back to stock? My headers worked awesome on my N/A setup (and I know they would work well in a turbo application as well) but I'm concerned about the history of tubular manifolds and turbos...
2) I also have the Kinetix plenum which I have to decide whether or not I'm going to keep it and risk the chance of cracking it or do I swap it out for one of your TB plenums (I know what your answer is, Peter) Has anybody here known of any V4 plenums that HAVE worked with an F/I setup? It is yet another thing that I don't want to part with unless I have to (12 whp on the dyno!)

Called Injen this morning and after talking with them I feel confident that removing the resonators to allow for a custom Y pipe will be a better idea than buying a new exhaust... the S/T will quiet the system enough to not make that much of a diffrence.....
GAME ON...
