(91 camry I4 auto) I wanting to start upgrading my exhaust, I bought new headers, and muffler, now i just need is the high flow catalytic converter, downpipe. Does anybody know where i can get one? Or one that will fit with few...very few modifactions. Also i wanting to upgrade the intake manifold (basic questions as above)????? Other things, is cam and cam gear, I know that doing a 3sgte swap would be better but i havent see any good posting about the can be turn out on auto slug box. Any upgrade parts for the auto box, or basically just change the fluid?........... I know this is a lot of questions, but you guys helped me out b-4 with the rims/tires so, your my last hope.

Exhaust work on a N/A I4 is near useless. You won't gain much until your putting down a good amount of power.
Any parts made for the 3s-ge can be used on your engine. So just search around for engine parts for a N/A Mr2 or Celica. You'll find everything you need. Including turbo kits.

High flow cats are universal, they just need to be welded on.
The downpipe (the part after the header) will need to be custom made. A good muffler shop should be able to do it, or do it yourself if you know how to fabricate stuff and weld.

Your not gunna find anything.
What you can do is have the stock intake manifold ported & polished.
You guyz are great,thanks for not preaching to me, and just giving me an answer. Have any of u upgraded the camgear? Also i looking at a turbo, can the auto I4 hold a turbo with basic stock components? And have you guyz tried upgrading the ignition?

They would be kinda useless, since the intake and exhaust cam are tied together by a internal gear.
3S-FEs only have one camgear (bolted to the intake camshaft). The intake camshaft drives the exhaust camshaft thru a internal gear (on the camshafts themself).
So even if there was a camgear available, you can't adjust each camshaft independently.
If you want camshafts with a different profile (lift + duration) contact Web Cam Inc. like I said in my post above. They have camshafts for a 5S-FE, so they should be able to come up with something for a 3S-FE.

I had a custom turbo setup on my 3S-FE, thats till I grenaded a piston due to a cylinder running lean (problems with tuning). Charlie (white90dx) has my turbo setup now and from what I've heard its running fine with 5 psi boost.
I've upgraded the ignition. MSD 6A + MSD Blaster SS coil.
I thinkin this is your speciality 88le, I read lots of forums but you seem to know a lot of info about camrys,I made a custom cai,using flexible exhuast piping, bent like fat "S" with a dual pipe attached, 1) i ran one piece in between the hole"cut to enlarge the hole beside the headlight, the other piece i'll have trouble locate a good spot, i don't want it to be to far away from the intake manifold, but yet i dont want to be sucking hot air, i have pic but cant post them cuz of my crappy computer (ill have my friend email you them if you need a visual). But i think i have two spots, but i just need an outside opinion on it, two minds better than one #1 have located a spot above the sway bars and right underneath the battery, I used a air scoop (6in.W,10in.L,2in.H) i had it place on the bottom piece under the bumper, forcing the air to run pretty close to the air filter #2 i thought about putting the second peice in the same location as the stock box. I have an electric turbo connected to the first piece, but basic math when the turbo not on its restricting air flow, so that my i have the dual on. Thanks, hope you got some insightful info

Yeah that's fine - but I don't know the information off hand so doing a quick search (because it is a fairly common topic) would yeild better results then me trying to guess on some information. It's your car, do what you will with it.
Do you have headers on, pacesetter, i just got my in i what an estimation on the time to install? Is a heat wrap on the headers worth the cash, is it a show basically? Do you have any pics of your engine bay. I looking for two thing in the pics. One the cold air intake location? Two the ignition connecting wires? Did you have the ECU remapped before the ignition upgrade?

I had a picture of my cold air intake, but I can't find it. Not sure what you want to know.
hey 88 le, im a noob and i have a 91 camry base model auto and i was wondering if i am able to apply that exact same msd ignition setup...and also what does it do?
88LE your've really did your homework on camrys.. So I got my pacesetter headers in the other day and finally got the time to install then. Look at them and where they go ( i feel like a monkey with his thumb up its A@# . But anywayz do you know anything about bodykits, i really want to change the look a little on my camry and suggest on kits from other vechiles that well work.. Also do you think replace the cataylic converter with an high flow is worth the cash. I'm looking to add some horses to my ride.
