Headers - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #5381 4 posts Started by 3TST
I'm in the process of trying to find a header.
(I have a few choices albeit for a Corolla)
The thing I would like to know is what type, that is, ceramic, stainless or chrome?

What do you guys recommend?

Hello vphmc,
Headers are a basic mod but i prefer stainless than ceramic,they got better flow,but ceramic has more duration do to heating so make your choice >smile.gif>
Check out the HKS Racing Header Type 2,its out for the 3S-GE for $547 check out www.takakaira.com.

I heard somewhere that Chrome and Stainless headers heat up very quickly which has an adverse effect on exhaust gas flow.
...thats why some racers wrap exhaust bandages around them.

BTW: I have a 7a-fe 1.8 ST so the 3s-ge (2.0 GT) header wont fit.
...and $547 for a header is expensive even if it is HKS.
Thanks anyway.
