New Doug's Headers finally here!!!
Even if the headers DID clear the OEM starter, it wouldn't be long before the heat toasted it. I did Doug's and a mini and would recommend it to anyone (with any header set up).
Also, the mini is just a better engineered piece (IMHO). It seems to turn the motor faster and less draw on the system.
The real benefit is the look of the ceramics, but more importantly, you won't be scraping the headers, every time you pull into a driveway etc with an apron. I had Hedmans on my GTS when I bought it.....awful design (IMO)...
Just my .02
