6G Celicas Forums

I am seriously considering that HKS combo for my GT. Has anyone tried the header? I saw some opinions on the exhaust in the parts database but none on the header.
Will there be a noticeable effect on the performance [dyno run] with those installed? Any opinions are appreciated.

Which HKS combo are you speaking of?

it is in the topic but here are direct links:

HKS Super Header Type II
HKS High Power Exhaust Silent

Wow, didn't know HKS made stuff for our car now. I wonder if emission passing would be possible with the header.

Yeah, I thought that sounded good, so I went and checked it out...it says its for an ST202, which would be the 3sge, right? And we have st204 the 5sfe...Still , I can think of better ways of dropping 600+ dollars on my celi.

well goferris has a thread about the 3sge header. technically it should fit cuz people are using the 3sgte turbo manifold.....im guessing it should be the same. well its all in the thread.

I agree. And when you can make an exhaust that's of the same level for a third of the price, I'll go with custom.

performance wise exhaust will give u a bit. headers wont give u to much

Yeah, read it a few times and ref'd it earlier on something else. Im starting to find that all these numbers are starting to look the same. I see that you can, then I read that you cant, then I read that you can but you have to do some custom work, then again that it cant be done. I agree that in theory its all the same, but thats just a guess...havent messed with the headers yet. My primary concern would be emissions, but all this is on another post. I totally agree with matt about the exaust too. Save the cash for something else.

Alright guys:
1. emmissions is not my concern
2. i have a 3s-ge so it is made for my engine
3. in Poland a custom, complete exhaust [header, cat converter, cat-back] is maybe $300 less than this HKS combo

I had a custom header and exhaust in my old civic and it was a 5-7hp gain on the dyno out of a 1.6 SOHC engine. If this one gives me nothing but a better sound then I will not bother.
