headers
I have yet to even see a header for the SRT-4. Most turbocharged cars never do get headers made for them because of their weight and their heat. The weight of a turbo is usually too much for your typical tube header, add the heat to it at the same time and you get broken leaking welds.
That is one of the more apparent reasons for the SRT-4, since the turbo is integrated into the manifold essentially making it one piece. All of the aftermarket upgrade turbos are lacking a header as well, this is primarily due to the reasons that I mentioned before. Very few turbo kits have a header, most use an exhaust manifold because of the weight/heat stress issue. I have never really gotten a good look at any turbo/header set ups, but I'm guessing that they use flanges that are welded to either the header or turbo or both and mount it to various engine, body and frame parts to support it and keep the weight/heat combo from breaking the welds.
