Even More Exhaust Questions

[hoyota]

Ok, so someone suggested that I could do an exhaust for my 5sfe for $500-$600. I was thinking I could do it for a little less, so I started looking at parts. Here's what I came up with.

Celica Header - $115 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Toyot...em270258801236

Ebay Muffler - $36

A few U Bends - $40 http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/I...D:100000219840

Some Tubing - $60 http://www.jegs.com/p/JEGS/752882/10002/-1/10263

And some more bends - $40 http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/S...minized+tubing

And find a friend to weld them together or maybe learn to do it myself.

Add those all together, and it would cost around $300 to $350. Am I forgetting anything?

Any opinions? And please don't bash my ideas for me being a cheap-o ( I call it being Frugal ).

BTW< Does the celica header have to be modified at all to fit on the Gen 3 5sfe? Thanks.

the header does have to me be modified. it needs to be extended to clear the sub frame i believe it is. that souds really cheap but considering that teh headers are the most expensive part and if ya do the labor yourself then yeah you can pull it off. but it takes LOTS of practice to be able to weld worth a damn and even more to learn to do it with tubes.

What would the U bend tubes be for?

Just for random bends I might need, maybe for the bend from the header to the rest of the tubing. Also just extra bends to account for my inevitable error.

How much would a Toyota OEM system run? And are there any part suppliers that show a parts diagram along with the individual prices?

Something like this: http://www.myhondapartsstore.com/myh...s=&view=normal

which is for my Honda Accord. Or I can show you the same thing for my old Volvo. I've used www.toyotapartsales.com and have been happy with their prices / service, but their search engine is complete [feces].
