ive been noticing a lot of mr2 5sfe headers on e-bay and yeah i was wondering if i could get a mr2 5sfe header and take it to a exaust place and get it bent so it dosnt hit the oil pan.

so people who not a lot more about this than me. do you think its a waste of money? if buy one take it to a shop and them tell me it cant be done.

why the heck would you DARE to try and post a bmp? as for html, I'm glad the site doesn't have it.

As for the headers, no, you can't make them fit without them being worse than the stock headers

Why do you say that? If you look at the design, it's just the downpipe that doesn't match up. The actual manifold is not affected by the engine's tilt. From what I can tell, the actual manifold is the ONLY place where modifcations can hurt performance. Even the collector can EASILY be modified so the header will work on a Celica. I'm rather surprised none of you GT guys have even tried this. It doesn't exactly require a sh!t load of ingenuity.
