5sfe Headers FOUND, But its on ebay... Options

[My2Celi]

Is this worth it? Headers knowing its from ebay, im scared.

[Bigmeanbulldog55]

Dang, that looks like a nice bolt in. I wonder about the quality. I have never seen those before.

[FSX_Celica94GT]

haha, off road use only

[creamed_corn]

That 12-15 horsepower gain sounds like a pretty ludicrous claim as well.

haha, off road use only

its just not carb legal

they dont mean to slap some knobies on your celi and take it off roading

although that would be a sight to see

[Jaws4God]

carb legal?

[Valo666]

looks like my pace setters..2 much though. I paid $200 CND for mine with a set of nology hotwires.

[dlx742]

carb legal?

certified by the state to pass emisions standards

[Jaws4God]

even with the O2 sensor and EGR?

[celicarus]

if we all want to know how well this works - then here's a suggestion

we can pool our money together and ask a reputable member with a 5sfe or 5sfte to purchase and use it - then a dyno for #'s.

i think putting in $5 -$10 a person isn't that bad to find out if this would be a good investment for the rest of us who plan to stay NA for a while

[creis]

lol if you guys give me money I'll buy it and have my car dynoed with it on, then sell it to someone and give the money back to you guys. or keep it till i got turbo and pay you guys back if its any good

[celicarus]

since i suggested it

i'm game -

who else might be in - who has paypal

[My2Celi]

that will not pass most state emission inspections, that elimimates your primary cat. That much $$ is too much IMO.

yah... thats why it says "for offroad use only" and why i said not carb legal

but who cares if it passes emissions anyway

[blu94gt]

I'll volunteer to install it on my car. I'll even pitch some of the money in if you guys wanted to do that and I can use the dyno at my school for free.

$250's not a bad price. At least it looks like it will fit the stock b-pipe. My SS Autochrome one was for an MR2 and it took me some considerable work to make it work for the Celica. I noticed alot of real gains from it. Not just sound changes like some other mods. If I were to get this I would plan to have at least a new b-pipe made as well though - doesn't make much sense to strap that to the tiny stock piping. A catback and maybe a high-flow cat would really make a difference.
Emmissions is a problem for some of us in TX though. Mine still passed for some reason and I'm OBDII.
I'd say get it - it looks alot like mine.

[blu94gt]

I also meant to add that where I live there are no emissions testing or anything, so I may just get it

[celicarus]

hey My2Celi - if your the guy standing with the mr2 - you look very familiar - if that's you i think i know you from way back

i'm near UTA

[HaRv3sTeR]

im also in for chipping by paypal...i like the celicarus idea

I propose blu94gt to test it since he can freely dyno it before and after the install

let's build a list to see

1-celicarus
2-HaRv3sTeR
3-blugt94



add your name if you're in!!!
