2.4l headers (i know its probably been asked but hear me out)

I realize this isnt a new question but im currently deployed overseas and trying to find a decent header/dp set up for my 2.4 06 ss with auto trans and i tried searching but the internet is soo slow out here that its a pain in the ass to browse through all the threads. So my question is whats a decent set up to go with that has no problems with installation? ive already got a corsa cat back and aem intake and plan on turboing it with the next year or so. Im just feelin out what you guys recommend and what has worked for you without custom fabs or buying other parts just to make it fit. Any suggestions will be greatly appriciated as im fairly new to the cobalt game coming off old camaros.

Well if you plan to turbo it then don't get a header. You won't be able to use the header once ur turbod

Cheap side : Badmab shorty with a zzp downpipe of your choice
Expensive side : ZZP longtube header

But honestly id just wait. The gains arent that big that its worth doing if your going turbo.
