I have a 1997 Toyota Celica GT with the stock engine. All I have is a Short Ram Injen Intake and I'm thinking about getting some headers for it but I don't know which one will give me the best performance and best durability. I want a direct bolt on if possible. My exhaust system is bone stock. I noticed some members have the ebay ones but are they legit? Most of the ones I've seen online are all the same design? I found this "KO-Speed" one from eBay for a little over 100 after shipping and taxes. Yes I know I live in Cali and it'll not pass smog but I have the stock one just in case. Lol. Any good?

don't get a header. won't improve performance (maybe 1-2 hp) and makes the celica sound ricey.

I had the ebay header on for months until i turboed the car. i have no dyno plots to prove it but i bet you gain 5-10 HP throughout the range by removing that huge CAT -------------------- 2001 Celica GT-S Turbo
