I recently bought a stock 94 celica, and I have found that there arent many companies that offer sweet headers for the GT. Well, being that I am a welder/fabricator, I think I will design and prototype one myself. I was wondering if there would be anyone else intersted in a header for this model, because I can build a jig for small scale manufacturing of these things if there is a market for them. I will also be designing a strut tie system, and ladder bar setup for this car, so let me know if anyone is interested in these items as well. I want to gauge if its worth my trouble building jigs for all this stuff. I originally planned on just doing my own custom one off designs, but if there is enough feedback, I will consider manufacturing and selling these items on a small scale.

Well I would say between 250 to 275 bucks for a bare metal mild steel header, but that depends on much trouble they are to make, and the materials used. Stainless would be more of course. the strut tie and ladder bar systems would eventually come, but I plan on doing the header first. Also, I dont know if anyone is interested in a turbo manifold. I read that most people use the stock 3SGTE mani for thier 5SFTE setups, but im sure I can make log style manis for 200 bucks. and unequal length shorty header types for a little more. These prices arent set in stone, so dont be misled.
