NEW HEADERS???? You mean a header? we don't have a v6 nor v8. its not header its turbo manifold. You won't need a new fuel rail. just bigger injectors. You're going to need something to control your injectors with too. The most iomportant thing you need to remember about boosting is TUNEING. You need to correct tune to run good. You can aim for what ever horepower you want but without the correct tune you'll never get there. People blow their motors up because they neglect tuneing. Research first before you start to splurge all your money on turbo goodies.


--------------------
98 Celica gt red- totaled deer
94 Celica st black DD (bad weather beater)- totaled deer
95 Celica gt silver- chassis sold
88 Celica All-Trac (Burned to a crisp)
94 Celica gt white (sold)

In need of a rust free chassis!!!!
