Headers! - 6G Celicas Forums

Please, in the name of God someone help me find some headers!
Those arospeed jerks dont make them anymore,
does anyone know of anywhere else I can get some damn headers?!?!?!!?!?!?!?
plz help!! >frown.gif> thnx!
There is no company that makes them. If you want them you'll have to find somebody that will custom make you some.
You need a header(notice how there's no "s"), and I think that you can buy one for a 3S-GE and have it modified to fit. I believe this is what Jared did on his car. >wink.gif>

New Toyota project coming soon...
Coomer....It was a usdm 3sfe.
And Yes you can put one on the 5sfe. I think he had to widen 1 bolt hole.

If you're desparate...Try This... Also, this header will bolt-up directly... but the downpipe will most likely need modification...

A header is not gonna add a ton of power (a few horses at most). Typical n/a 4 cylinders these days get excellent exhaust flow with the stock set-up...

um, as far as i know.... the stock exhaust manifold generally just has an O2 sensor in it, and most aftermarket headers have o2 hook ups either in the header itself or on the downpipe.... an exhaust manifold doesn't have a built in cat.... the cat is after the downpipe......

guess that's something they did in the later model cars..... still seems like it would cost them more to build a cat into an exhaust manifold than to have 2 seperate cats like new cars have.....
Ripp mods (the supercharger guys) made a header for their project. someone should contact them and see if they just sell the header.

Here's a picture of the 7AFE exhaust manifold... The entire bottom piece is the cat (the part wrapped in the heat shield)... I believe it's also the case with the 5SFE manifold...

Here is a back-side pict...

And here is a pict of inside the cat...

This is for the California version of the AT200... so others may vary... but in this case... there is a cat in the manifold.

My 5S-FE has two holes for the o2 sensor. One PRE CAT and the other POST CAT.
I have the Pacesetter 3s-fe header from the 4th gen Celicas from Summit racing.
Bout $150 shipped to my door.
All u have to do is widen one of the holes to the head stud.
DON'T use the pacesetter gaskets.
I went and got the Felpro(sp?) metal gaskets.
Thats the exhaust mani gasket and the collector gasket.
B4 i blew 5 of the paper gaskets with sealent.
Changed to the metal and its great.

As said there is 2 O2 sensors on the 5s.
There is one hole for the o2 on the header.
Since it eliminates the cat, u have to either weld a new bung in for the 2nd o2 or just do what i did and splice one o2 sensor into the other.
That way u don't get a CEL for not having 2 o2's.

The second o2 sensor has 2 wires while the first o2 sensor has 1. How do you splice the the wires?
i heard that hotshot proformance is coming out a header for 90-99 celica gt.. but still haven't when they are releasing it out.

Lucky you. I wonder what the second wire is for. I wanted to rid myself of the second o2 sensor and was really looking forward to splicing them together.
