Hello everybody,
I know it probably says i'm a new member, I actually couldn't remember my sign in name, meaning there was no way I could get my password. So, here I am, spunky393. Anyways, to the point. I live in Quincy Illinois, right across the river from West Quincy, Missouri. A new-found friend of mine, Shawn Lile (one of the greatest genious and talented people i've ever met dealing with cars), and we were talking one day at his new shop in West Quincy. He was talking to me about how he wished more cars with potential would come to his shop (don't get me wrong, he has more than enough cars to work on already, he famous!). He then looked over at my white, '98 Toyo Celica GT, and said "now that car has some potential." That's where I quickly corrected him, telling him no one makes anything, at least I thought I was correcting him. Here's the kicker, If enough people on this wonderful 6th Generation Celica site want fully working headers and COLD air intakes, I would be glad to give my car up for the time he needs. Just give me feed back, PLEASE and thanks.

Ok, here we go everybody.
Headers: Steel obviously, maybe coated by jet, maybe we'll do something our selves that will be and look just as good and won't cost near as much. Don't know how large the piping or anything like that yet... But will have a prototype in 30 days, will bring pictures on and off my car. estimated price - 450-500 Cold air: Probably steel, more than likely. Aluminum isn't much lighter and is much harder to bend, and as we all know MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE. Probably the same coating, but coating will be later. Don't have any prices yet. And there isn't much reason to make the piping anybigger than the intake already. So if you want to know the size of the piping, go measure for yourself, haha. I really don't know when that'll be done, but since the front of the car will be torn apart to get the best set of headers we can, we'll probably start building the cold air right then and there. We may have to go on to pre-orders so we can get a mendral bending machine, meaning faster for us, easier for us, cheaper for you. Please give me your opinions, and i'll check back soon. -------------------- The most important lesson I learned from Karate-Dō Kyōshan – “You can not be what you do not believe you are” |
