Default Change diff or go for the headers?

Hi guys im new to the world of car mods so i thought i would ask for your advice as to whether i should go for the pacemaker 4490's first or have the standard diff replaced with the 3.73 diff. i hear its about $1300 for the diff and i was quoted $630 for the headers.i will do both eventually but looking for the low end torque or take off 2 get my car 2 ump off the line a little more. would love some advice on this. currently have the typhoon cold air intake and a 2.5inch cat back system.

No need to appoligise just think ya better getting answers from guys that own them so
have done the mods on the same vehicle than from owners of other models.
Plus you'll get some great inspiration from fellow members B series.
