Headers? 700 1985

I have a 1985 volvo 740 gle sedan, I am on a lifelong mission to make it faster, does anyone know if headers for this car exist? I had a high flow cat put on, a smaller resinator, and a bullet turbo muffler, now when I come to a stop and it is in gear the whole car starts shakeing because the exaust resinates to much,I thought it was the engin originaly so I had $1200 of work put in to it, result %20 less shaking. I was told that if I mess with the air flow a little more then maybe I can make the shaking go away, if I push the gass and rais the rpm's by about 35 the shaking goes away, I was told there is no way to rais it, even that much. So I am looking for headers or at least a performance exaust system that someone had tried on this car that don't make it shake, Also I am planing to do a new camshaft, and throtel body, and chip I have only found 1 though and the page was not in english(so if you know where I can get one let me know, even though it is only a 7hp gain),does anyone have any feelings on that may it be good or bad please let me know. Styleing tips are allso good.

thanks alot
