Headers on a 4-cylinder

I'm just curious do they make headers for 4-cylinders? I have a 2.5l and I would love to add any possible horsepower. If they do, do they make a difference enough to be worth it? I know backpressure isn't as bad with a 4 as it would be with a 6 or an 8. and once again if there are headers made for 4's does anybody know any websites? thanks

it would be a single header, and the gains would probably be minimal. save your money.

The stock 2.5L exhaust manifold is actually designed similar to a scavenger header setup anyway. Not worth it unless you have done some other costly mods to the engine.
