your going to get jumped for not searching... with that said theres numerous options available.

but any header that fits a 2.2 (l61) or an SS/SC (2.0 LSJ) will fit a 2.4 (LE5)

Theres the badmab,ca,zzp,ottp etc etc...

I liked my zzp mid length it made a noticeable difference on my 2.4 (im an 08 sport automatic) But now have a zzp shorty (no longer made) due to a manual downpipe rubbing on my swaybar. the only thing to keep in mind is when ordering the header if your buying a downpipe make sure it will fit an auto. Not all downpipes will fit an auto (not sure if your an auto or manual).

Yes you can get a header for your car just search and you'll find one. Theres many brands including zzp, vibrant, clearimage, etc. Just search man and take the time to read through this site as its a good tool to use. Also get a exhaust to go along with your header as it'll breath better with a catback exhaust.

That would honestly not sound that great.
if you want to go the cheap route you can buy the cti over the axle pipe for the stock exhaust pipe and add your own muffler for cheap.

Or if you want catbacks then the slp,megan,dc sports catbacks are fairly cheap.

Since your an auto id get a shorty header then run a zzp auto downpipe.
For an air filter id get the injen or k&n cold air intake.
