Gettin my header today :D Options

[Batman722]

got em on today.

will post pics luego..tired.

my CEL didnt even come on when i test drove without both o2 sensors..wtf..

neways, im glad there will be no CEL even with one o2 sensor in.

the 02 code is a 2 detection trip. It means that if it has bad readings 2x in a row in between warm up and cool down cycles then it will trip. Then it shuts it off and stores the code. Don't worry, the CEL will come on without an 02 in there.

i got those headers from ebay... but they didnt aling to the block.. is that the way all headers are for celicas?? do i have to do some kind of custom work on them!?!?

[xs94st]

here we go..

before:


after:




the soundclip of my muffler needs to be updated..cuz rite now its effin loud..considerin i have no resonator either.

i dug around furiously n got the silencer installd..cept now it sounds like a bumblebee cuz of increased exhaustflow without the silencer, it sounds beast

[xs94st]

yea, i know everythin is pretty dirty..it will be cleand soon

just need a couple hours to make everythin perfect inside n out

[frosty]

use PB blaster is better

YEAH FOR PB!!!!!

Nice headers, I didn't read where you said how much you paid for them, how much?


As for wrapping, I was under an impresion that said to change out the wraps everynow and then.

I;m guessing it won't but will the heatshield go back on with those headers?

[LewFX]

nice, bump up another 5hp!! total is 110 now?...your left spark plug wire looks loose

[xs94st]

yESS 110 HP OF FURY!!!!!!

lol, yea that wire is just funky, its not loose its just that square boot right there needs to be pushd on

got the headers for $51+shipping on ebay.

im gonna wrap em later, the heat shield wont attach to it.

any1 know of a good muffler that isnt very loud at all? i'll post a new vid of my car soon so yall can hear it

[playr158]

very nice!

what you need to do is find a resonator to put into your exhaust system, i remember not having one it was horribly loud.

muffler won't make too much difference on overall Db level.

[xs94st]

alritey, im sure that will make a big difference. any1 know where i can geta resonator can from? maybe the junkyard today after work..

[95CelicaST]

Any exhaust shop can hook you up with a resonator.

As for muffler.. go with a GReddy SP2 style. Looks good, not all flashy, and won't attract much attention.

[mobsterk]

those headers look just like mine, lol i guess imma have to drill them!! i talk to the guy that sale them to me on ebay.. and he said i can return them but im pretty sure is goin to be the same problem if i buy aother set of headers

its gonna be short. u have to bore out the holes in the header to make em fit as well.

[mobsterk]

hey those are the same headers i bought!! GOOD luck buddy!! lol
yeah u have to bore them out!!

oh yeah!! what u might want to do, when u head to the muffler shop..tell the dudes to cut the pice of pipe where the 2nd o2 sensor is.. so they can weld it to the new pipe..

[Bitter]

same as what i got as well, but you got an extra gasket that i didnt! mine just came with the head and section gaskets, not the 3rd one for the cat flange. lucky ****er.

[mobsterk]

i got the same gaskets and everything!

[Komail]

Yea, um also I have a 1997 ST, I think my upper o2 sensor thingy is diffrent too....i talked to an exhaust guy, he said he can weld an o2 sensor bung into the upper o2 sensor place...gonna cost like 80 dollars

[xs94st]

it looks fine in the picture..all u do is use a 12mm deep socket rachet n loosen up the o2 sensor on your existing headers n then use the same nuts for fitting it to the new header. the only things you would have to weld are the extra piping to the cat n the 2nd o2 sensor bung.

is it the second o2 sensor (on the downpipe) that you are talking about?

theres a vid clip of my exhaust with the headers installed

i revvd to 4500rpm

[Komail]

Like my upper o2 sensor is diffrent, i have a 97, I think that 94-95 had 2 nuts, and 96-97 had just a screw in o2 sensor...

I already know about the lower o2 sensor...
