hey what's up mines FF 4age, i want header too. Pacesetter makes one, but i heard there quality is not good as others. TRD used to make them, but someone out there might be selling a used one. Let me know if you get one. i wish there was more options!

how much would a header cost?

do you have to change the whole exhuast system after installing the header?

:oops: I dunno much tech stuff, but I would love to learn more..... :wink:

i have seen a few of the pacesetter headers for the mk2 82-86 supra inline six, and it sells for roughly 100usd. the quality of bending is good, and the flow pattern is well thought out, but the metal is very thin, or, in other words, it is very light for maximum performance.

HKS exhaust are the same. they use really thin wall mild steel tubing, which is great if you live in arizona, but not so good if you drive through lots of water, or heaven forbid snow and salt! My brothers HKS exhaust lasted only 2 winters before pieces started falling off, and he paid close to a thousand for a cat back back in the day.....

Sometimes you have to draw a line between getting something thin that will wear out faster, but be lighter and better in the short term, as oposed to something beefier, which also weighs more, costing you power in the short term, but having a product that lasts a lot longer.

It's like that joke about the 2 bulls, one old, one young, standing atop a hill, and wanting to go down and screw the lady cows. the young bull says, "lets run down and get us one of them cows". The older and much wiser bull says" Lets walk down and get 'em all!"

i dont know if others will have the same opinion....but i've heard that pacesetter is crap....in the other hand....kdb makes excellent headers....

you don't have to change whole exhaust, but you won't get the full effect/power if you keep the exhaust stock.

it would cost 200 without coating, 300-400 with coating, but always get coating-last longer/look better

yeah I hear that about pacesetter a lot but that's the only one i know for my ride, I'm not sure there's an oxygen sensor hole for it.

headers look so cool, better than the exhaust manifold cover! i wonder how much power it adds though...

usually around 10-20 HP or more with some tweaking and it doesn't hurt if you have an aftermarket exhaust and intake.

damn! that's a lot of power from a header
o wait, are u talking flywheel?
wait, that's still a lot
as far as pacesetter goes, in the sr20 aftermarket world, they make some pretty good dyno proven products but like everyone said, jus don't expect them to last forever.
