curious to know any fitment issues, o2 sensor problems for cali models, any reviews?

[Sinyk]

10-16 HP increase depending on other mods

Sorry.. It sparkles!

(before you get any heat into it, then it discolors!)

[Decalsondemand]

just put the same header on my car about a week ago.....fit like a glove and i can feel a difference as far as performance goes...held is shine for about 10 minutes now it has sort of a rainbow affect going on due to the heat..cant complain for the price though

[BeefyT]

someone should take their car to a dyno with just the header to see how much it really adds lol

why does a header interest you trd proven? aren't you swapping out engine later on

theirs the header you want

[trdproven]

There is some car shows coming up and getting an engine or even deciding on all that goes with a swap is not in mind or budget for the rest of the year. I just had a recent makeover this whole year that costed me over 10gs, don't wanna spend too much more this year, trying to settle down, get a house, and a brand new SUV. I'll show you guys some pics by the end of this week how my car looks like now. A little bit different. But it takes a lot of money to even do that. I need something extra to open up hood on show.

back on topic - what about the double O2 sensor thing? I hate check engine lights.

ic ic. Well header would make engine bay a look nicer. Well im sure the state you live in isnt strict like CA. do you have 2 o2 sensors on ur car?

my bro bought a obx header for his 5sfe camry and if you dont install the 2nd oxygen sensor (if that applys to you) then your check engine will come on. CA cars have pre cat and post cats. Same for the oxygen sensors, one main one and secondary one to monitor anything that the first one could of missed.

Is it true low end torque loss is noticeable? On my friends' cars I wouldn't notice the difference because I don't own it.

i gained all thw way around idk what they talk bout it pulles harder from 35-60-bout 110

[BonzaiCelica]

naw id say you gain a little bit of torque. Notice a lilttle power hp increase in 1st, a little more in 2nd, a good increase in power 3rd and in 4th.

[99Celica]

definitely lost some torque after install, but top end feels much better

[whatthe]

So this header is good bang for buck? As im kind of interested too.

[jimmykay]

I got this header and replaced my whole exhaust system.
I have a 99 so that means OBD II. I removed my second O2 sensor and left it unplugged. No check engine lights so far, but I haven't taken it to do emissions either. I'm probably not due for another couple of years. However, I'm keeping my stock header in my basement in case I need to swap it back in for the 2 O2 sensors.

If you live in California like me, you will have two O2 sensors. I e-mailed the folks at this e-bay header and they said they have only one O2 sensor on it, which is sort of weird considering they are in Walnut, California.

At this point I think I am opting out of this mod, but I may change my mind. I just don't like the idea of that 2nd O2 sensor hanging out...
