The most popular pipe seems to be HMF, there realtivly cheap at $227 on ebay, and they actually work. Then pick up some jets, and higherflow airfilter.

When they made the Raptor350 they did a nice job redesigning the header pipe to increase the speed of the revs and add to the mid-range and top-end. I think with just the slip-on and a jet kit you will be fine. I'm not sure you need the header pipe too, or if you had it I don't know if the increase would be that great by comparison....

Of course someone who has see the comparison in real life might be able to answer better...

I think HMF only makes a slip on, the stock header flows perfect.

If I had it to do over agaiin i would not buy the powerbomb or any header for the raptor 350. It gave very little barely even noticeable gains. The only thing i liked about it was my exhaust was a slight bit quieter

just my 2 cents, and I know that it will probably start a war, but get a UNI air filter. They have better flow than the K&N does, filters out way more crap and costs wayyy less. as long as you keep it clean and oiled it will filter out way more and keep your engine nice and debris free. i'm not looking to start a war, and i know its mostly oppinions, so u have to go with whatever u want on it.
