its fine, just like the rest on there, just coated. Downpipe will be to short, and won't have second sensor hole.

As expected. Can I just go to a muffler shop and have them extend it? Even if it's ceramic powder coated?
Bitter
That 'ceramic powder coat' will probably just burn right off, but at that price...who cares! as long as its stainless and not mild steel underneath and you can wrap it or get it real ceramic coated.

How about this one?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Corolla-DX-...#ht_2390wt_1167

It says no modification needed. I dunno if that's true or not
Bitter
if it fits the corolla with no mods then it won't fit the celica with no mods and vice versa.

I see. Well can I just take it to a muffler shop and have them weld in a piece of tubing? How will this work out?
Bitter
check the how-to

yup, that's exactly what I did. I just had them weld the hole in the header shut cuz it was useless anyways. it only read where the two tubes so what's the point. then i had them weld the O2 sensor where it all comes into one and also had to add some tubing underneath too. I will post a video and pics soon so that everyone will finally get an answer. smile.gif

sorry, that's all i got for now. haven't had time to get under it and snap some. but just letting you know it works.

what you are looking at are headers that will bolt on but does not mean it will align with your exhaust. a good example is a 3sge header on a 5sfe same concept.

Thanks! I'm not so worried about getting a ricer sound anymore because yours sounded just fine.

yeah, I was scared about that too but i'm VERY happy with the sound of it. I love it. It's pretty quiet until you step on it and then it really opens up. biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

Well you've been a great help! But I'm gonna have to hold off on the header for a few weeks, I just bought trdproven's intake
