To get more performance from any header you put on, you'd have to do the rest of the exhaust with larger piping (2 1/4" ? ) and probably a cat back exhaust.
I believe OBX makes a SS header that fits a 98 SL2 but it will cost you a few benjamins....
As for intakes: Many folks use AEM ram intakes.
google alot and check ebay

Hello. Not sure if you've done this already, but the obx header on eBay is nearly $200 including shipping etc... I'm going to buy one for my ride after the holidays. AEM intakes are big money. You can get a cold air intake new for about $70 on eBay as opposed to spending hundreds on an AEM though I don't knock their product. Invest in a hi-flow cat. They are sooo much better than stock. OBX does offer a cat back that sounds nice, not like a bee stuck in a tin can, but they are in the ballpark of $400. If you know how to weld you can get away a lot cheaper with universal fit parts. Otherwise, just keep it stock. You could spend a million dollars on an exhaust and intake with minimal gains. Just browse the tech area and start typing keywords and you'll find 99% of the time these guys have a lot of trial and error experience and a lot of what works best to save you cash. Check out the classifieds section too. Anyway, hope this helps. Good luck with your build!

I haven't personally done it, but I have read people buying those $40 ebay intakes, and putting a good filter on it (aem, k&n, etc) and getting the same sound out of it.
I have also read people buying ebay exhausts, and some being as good, if not better, than the name brand ones.
