Default What should i get?

So im thinking of getting one of three things either with my tax return or sometime soon when i have the money. All three have there perks im just lookin to get some other opinions.

Headers-i've heard that the 4.7's manifolds flow pretty well and headers don't give you as much power as they would in other applications. I like the sound that they would give me though.

Superchips Programmer-other than the $380 price tag i dont see any con's. pretty decent gains in hp and trq and a raised top speed limiter even though i dont speed that much. the seat of the pants feel is what i would be looking for with this.

Hurst Short Shifter-obviously i'd be able to get through the gears quicker and i heard that they smooth out the shifting and its not as clunky as the stock set up is.

So let me know what you all think. Pro's and con's and/or experiance with any of these things would be great. Thanks for your opinions.

Id choose between the headers and chip, but if you want performance like you said the chip will probably do better. I won't vote but count one of mine into chip or headers

headers are a waste of time unless you're boosting. there are better options than a superchips like a custom pcm flash or an SCT tune. You'd be surprised how much faster and easier it is to shift with a short throw shifter... the stock is pretty sloppy in any truck.
