5SFE exhaust mods - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #61794 7 posts Started by mitchy
I was just wondering what everyone out there with a 5SFE engine has done with their exhaust?

can you get 4-2-1 headers? are the ebay ones any good? what else have u done? and where can you get the parts you used?
i have been told by many people that an full exhaust system for an NA car is not good because the car looses back end power, but what ive done is removed my resonator and created a new pipe diff back onto a 2.5 inch stainless exhaust with a 5" tip, sounds nice.

so you just have the standard piping?
this is kinda noobie but back end power is low revs right?
i just wanna make my car sound good, maybe a lil faster but i just dont wanna wack a cannon onto the stock exhaust (in my opinoin rather ricey and stupid)

EDIT: i also read somewhere that the 3S-GE headers will fit a 5S-FE but i cant remember where, is this true?

By back end power he means back pressure. (i think) And the general conclusion here is that exhaust will lead to little power gained, but maybe alittle better throttle response.
