I got tired waiting for my fabricator to get started on building my pipes for my turbo system, so i spent some pocket change and got the Ebay header. Install was very simple. i did have to loosen the alternator to get the header around that stud, but that was it. took me abot 30 minutes to install.
Before.  During  After    after a quick trip around the block  Now for review....This header was an excellent bang for the buck. Cost was about 110 after shipping. i can feel a huge difference in acceleration. Im on stock exhaust from the header back so the car is still very quiet. In fact, i dont hear much of a change in engine noise. But the Butt dyno says more power is there. -------------------- 2001 Celica GT-S Turbo

not as long as my engine is running, but i thought about turbo though. but I am holding that thought because of getting another toyota that I will build for straight performance.
I didn't convert to manual transmission until my auto trans gave me probs. I did fix the auto trans problem, but I went ahead and converted still. So who knows, I don't think I would want to do a swap and let this car sit for a long time, because of the time I have. As you can see in my profile, I have spent sh*tloads of money to get a very detailed, accessorized, mint celica. My car is full restored inside and out. I don't wanna ruin what it is now. I would swap though if it was stock barebone This post has been edited by trdproven: Dec 24, 2009 - 7:17 PM -------------------- 94 Celica GT
