Awesome! Solid information guys!!! So I need to change the headers back to the stock globs of metal lol... those things are so ugly... but that works for me! Utec for sure so I dont blow up...
What gauges does everyone recommend... I'm sorta lost on this type of thing cuz I've always owned N/A cars. I've looked through Intensepower's site to see... any lower priced but solid gauges and pods?

Speaking from personal experience I'd say that for S/C applications the headers are a VERY GOOD compliment.
The Topspeed headers wont fit...End of story there...As for the reflash....there are TONS of people running the flash with an aftermarket exhaust. So far I have heard of two specific exhausts causing an overboost although I am still waiting to confirm the second one when 350zbiturbo gets me some data...Topspeed Pro-1 for sure and JIC single (assuming thats what happeneed to his car because I still dont know what boost he hit).
If you install the kit with the stock exhaust and a plenum you should be more the fine. So far the following exhausts have worked perfectly with the kit..
Apexi N1
Apexi WS2
Modified Borla
Custom 3"
Tanabe (all of them)
Injen Modified
No exhaust whatsoever
Amuse R1 Titan
The list goes on...
So to answer the question install the kit, get it on the dyno and verify its safe. If you change something like the exhaust system to something thats essentially a wide open 3" you should dyno the car...this is pretty common sense since exhaust systems alter turbo cars boost pressure and tune drastically.
