OK - I am in California. Not sure if mine has two sensors, however, the headers on e-bay are in California. I am going to ask them about the sensors.




I asked them about the sensor holes and they said theirs only has one. I checked my car and I definitely have two. It seems odd to me that theirs only has one since they are in Walnut, CA. IN any event, it sounds like it will work OK with only the one but I am going to take pass for now I think since most people have it say that it helps in 40+ mph range and I really want something that gives me more off the line acceleration.

Nice Product, Iv Installed it But the Gasket Sucks,!! Iv ordered one from toyota 33$, I have a leak on the header gasket, sound like a rallycar, Yesterday i did a huge Backfire under the hood lol! thout that something exploded

I installe these headers about a month ago, the downpipe that connected to the rear cat bolts were str8 rusted/welded basically, i used a grinder thickest in the garage a wheel with like diamond sand paper stuff very course and cut them off and used a hammer to knock the bolt out, but if you dont have this machine just pay a mechanic shop to do this but i also had to push my resonator towards the engine bay about 1 inch to connect front pipe with rear cat



Also ran the car when only header was attached revved it up holy **** that thing was loud, sounded like a dirt bike if they made in 8 cylinders

it only doesn't sound good if you got a cheap exhaust.

Dont waste your money for a new 5sfe aftermarket manifold with little gain. Go all out and get a 3sgte manifold with a turbo and intercooler biggrin.gif

actually rico the 5sfe 4-1 headers makes a significant difference on 3rd gear, first thing I noticed, i can stretch that 3rd gear like a mofo compared to the stock manifold. Better top end nonetheless for only 75 bucks.

Same. It wasn't a "I think that feels different" difference either; I was all, "Holy Pull in 3rd, Batman!". biggrin.gif

How much louder does this header make your exhaust?
trdproven
#138
not very much...on idle, i couldnt tell the difference between headers and no headers, when you stomp, more air comes out and changes the sound but the exhaust sounds good still.

i can't really tell but it sounds like a leak unless thats your filter. listen for sputtering air. the gaskets they come with are generic.
