ebay headers... good or what?

hi guys
i got some questions

first, there's a solara v6 header on ebay. Will it directly fit on my 2000' camry v6?
second, is it of good quality? looks good to me... what do you guys think?
third, how much whp would i expect from these headers? i mean the 5th generation 4 cylinder camrys gain 8whp from headers because they have a catalytic convertor directly attached to the stock headers, but our v6 doesnt have that, so i'm thinking that maybe if i do a catless exhaust system, adding headers would be a waste of mony... i dont wanna hear theoretical crap about how smooth the flow is... i want dyno figures...

thanks guys

yeah they'll fit. but in the cross over the there may not even be a hole. from I've seen you should probably get the cross over pipe redone if you get those. theres no piont if the hole in the cross over is only one inch or less!

oh there a pain in the ass to install too. front;easy. rear bank;headache.

they are tricky to install, but thoes should fit fine. if ya want dyno numbers, go on solaraguy.com, they have serval members who have installed and dynoed aftermarket headers on the 1mz.

are these headers AND Y-pipe? cuz unless there is a modified Y-pipe in the mix ur not lookin at much of a gain if any. the stock exhaust manifolds flow fine on an N/A car but the Y-pipe is the weak point on this V6.
