I like the Thermal exhausts. High quality pieces. They're also fairly cheap, comparatively speaking. They also sound great.
I haven't seen/heard the Skunk2 (RS*R) personally, but from what I understand, it's only an axle back. Only consider that if you're having the rest of the system custom made. Otherwise, you'll get ZERO benefit from it.
Edit:
Also, you won't be wasting money with just either the header or the exhaust, but you won't see as much from either as you would from the two put together- i.e. header=5 hp, exhaust=5 hp; header+exhaust=12 hp. I'm not saying you'll get 12 horse from a header and exhaust, but you get my drift.
It's all about the bottlenecks.
