Yes you will. Personally, I'd get rid of the 2" drop w/ something between a .75-1.5" drop to get your handling back and add the headers for more power.

What kind of shorties are they and how long you had them?

I would not get longtubes with a low drop, other option is midlength headers.

If you can find headers w/ a 2.5" collector, you should be fine. However, I think all headers for our cars have a 3" collector, which is the problem...
